I need UBER help

ok, ive been workin on putting the entire wiring harness back in this SA, i finally have it all hooked up, went and turned the key to on, the blinkers dont work yata yata yata, then i notice this smoke coming from behind my dash. so i crawl under and this little box that says T.N.K. is smoking it was mounted almost to the stearing column, and had what was called an intemiten relay ( or that is what it is, i dont know) attached to it acording to my diagram.
what the heck is up with it, i took it off and the only thing that changed was a light in the dash that said eng. or sumthin like that ( 3 letters) didnt come on. did i hook this up wrong or.......... im scured

ok I figured out its the switch relay, thingy for the wipers, but i cant figure out what would cause it to short like that. any one have any ideas, i hooked everyhting up like in the wiring diagram.
and the light that comes on says GEN, im uess ing this is because the car is just running off the battery?
