HELP!! CHANGING HORNS CAUSED 340i TO DIE

If anyone is reading this i desperately need help. A few weeks ago I was changing horns on my 2016 340i and somehow something sparked rendering my car useless. Does not start only cranks, getting fuel no spark. Have a million codes popping up from drivetrain malfunction, chassis stabilitization, airbags, etc. If anyone has any clue what has happened please let me know. Have had many experiences with B58’s but not have seen this. If anyone has any clue what has happened or how i can fix it please let me know. Thanks!

What exactly were you doing when the car sparked? Were you working on it with the battery still connected?
