Major Help!!
I accidently stalled my Fc and now it wont start at all. The clutch pedal is all the way down to the ground and wont budge. I have no idea what to do because now when i try to turn it over i wont get any signal from the batt. Please help if you can.

Sounds like your clutch hydraulics failed and you tried to start it in gear and effectively killed the battery because you probably had the parking brake/etc set, or similar.

Changing fluid might work. Though I would look under your car into the access plate on your transmission just look for anything that looks wrong. If the clutch is disengaged that is wrong.
Something in abrupt stop might've clogged or pinched a hydraulic line and prevented it from disengaging. When I say might, I mean... probably didn't, but cross your fingers because it's an easy fix if it did.
Also check your pedal itself, and the mechanics from the pedal that operate the system itself.
Otherwise it would seem to be your master cylinder
