Aside from the fuse, is there anything else i should also check.

So i can basiclly narrow it down to the starter/ignition fuse problem?

you can test the ignition wires just to make sure they dont have power. if you test them and they DO have power but still nothing works then you probably have a much bigger problem
check the plug for the ignition harness, if it is loose it could be causing your problems. also just inspect the wires themselves to make sure there are no cuts or rips in the jacket and that everything is neat and not wrapped around anything. keep your eyes open for electric arc marks and other loose wires or plugs

ouy probably blew the MAIN fuse that is rated at 80 - 120 amps from the battery to the fusebox. Trace from the battery to fusebox. inline thr will be a little bo x with a big huge fuse inside. most likely this got burn out like chris mentioned if you arced it to ground.

You guys are absolutely correct! my 50 Amp fuse was blown... i guess i'll first re-do my alarm's fuse, and then put a new main fuse back to the car's fusebox and hope i can fix my auto starter all together!

i'll keep you guys updated
