89 245 no crank 200

Hi, all...
Been awhile since I posted, but wondering if you folks might be able to help me out with a mistake I made. My 89 245 finally killed the battery at the grocery store this morning, and I had a friend come to jump start me so I could get to work.In my haste, I managed to cross the jumper cables (positive clamp on negative), thus killing something (fuse? relay?) in the starter circuit. I have power to all lights, accessories, etc, but turning the key has no effect... not even a click. Any idea what I might have fried? I have a new battery, and will be heading over there after work with my Bentley manual to try to coax the old boy back to life. Any ideas on where to start looking is very appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
Adam
