On the assumption that your original problem is the cause of your current one can you be a little more precise of the location, description and colors of the wires that caused the problem. Did they short to ground or each other? How were they fixed?
Transmission range sensor on top of atx is in the battery area and wiring thereto could be involved.
If I read your post correctly it sounds like starter solenoid or relay was activated, without key in ignition, causing starter to operate continuosly and it subsequently burned out.

Essentially the Ford wiring diagrams, I have '97 version.
Edit: Educated guess, let's see if we're lucky; diode in engine compartment fuse box and interior fuse panel should be checked.
