ive fixed it now. I goggled the eng cont fuse and looked at some questions people asked and one person said that it was there o2 sensor so i tried that didnt work then i moved the main wires going from the ecu to the afm and then my lights turn off so i pulled the wires apart and they where all melted to getter so i taped them up and now its mint.

A big thanks to the people who come up with ideas to fix it much appreciated
