Car won't start after ECU reset. Help!

Hey Guys,

I took out the ENG CNL fuse out of my 85 Trans Am to see if it was blown.

Now the car won't start, it was starting first time before this.

I have tried cranking it twice, it just never turns over. It just makes a ticking sound.

Help!

Nevermind - looks like the battery is dead - 10.6 is not enough to crank right?
