I hate to jump to conclusions but the clicking on the inside under the dash and clicking in the engine bay lead me to think your ECU is probably toasted. You can check this pretty easily by pulling the ECU out from behinf the center console near the inside firewall. When you open the gold box you will probably find a few capacitors have leaked acid on the board and shorted it out. If this is the case there will also be a smell similar to rotten fish from the acid too.

BTW-I would say the spark plug wire being burned off is probably not related unless the ECU has a lot more power than I think it does.

Good luck!
