OK, so I did a headgasket replacement put everything back together, car was cranking and turning but no starting (it did once for about 3 seconds) then found out that the fuel pump was not starting then change the fuel pump relay with a new one.
However prior changing the fuel pump relay I took the relay next to the fuel pump out and made the mistake of trying to start then realise and put the relay back and the new one and I had this continuous beep in the car. Since the battery was also low I connected a charger and the beep went away, then I started the car and the harness started to burn and I stopped immediately as you can see it burned and I will need a new harness but want to know if I plugged something wrong. Also I'm sure I will need a fuel pump since I did not heard the pump coming on, on this last try
