He definitely messed something up. Did you try to take the slot out to see if something was wrong. Put the car on not started to see if you get a code. Right now line 15 is not active. You can start the car up if you want to read the codes.

You battery cables may be damaged. Wiggle them to see if it makes a difference. Disconnect IBS to see if it makes a difference. If the does not work you may need to start looking at the JBE fuses and follow the positive cable out paying attention to the connection in the center of the trunk near the back seat.
