Default Cranks but no start 09 es350

Hi all,

I put an incorrect battery into my 09 es350 which turned out to be opposite polarity. Joy. After browsing other posts, I went through and replaced all faulty fuses I could find including the fuseable link. I also tested my relays in the fuse box. I was able to get the car from totally dead to cranking with dash and electronics functioning, but I can’t get it to start. I tested my ignition coils for spark and I am getting spark. This makes me think the next frontier is fuel issues. I tried unplugging the fuel pressure sensor, but still just cranks with no start. Only code thrown is for a coolant temperature sensor, which was there before the battery incident. Tried using the key/fob unlock combo to see if it was immobilizer. Did nothing. Dash says check vsc. Not sure where to poke at next before tapping out and ordering a diagnostic. Any suggestions would be great.

You probably didn't find all the blown fuses this will give you some indication where they all are

I’ve triple checked fuses in engine bay and driver side compartment, but doesn’t hurt to check again. Will do.

Usually EFI main, EFI2 and 3 if there is one blow.

EFI fuses may be the problem. Also, check the fuel pump relay.
