Sounds similar to the problem I had last week. I had a short that blew the fuse to my fuel pump and also blew the main circuit panel breaker; Catboat found the problem for me after some head scratching.

You cutting that wire could have caused a similar short....as Cats right hand man would say, "make sure to check them three fuses located somewhere on the engine" (mine were a little hard to find and were on the back of the motor with some relays). Good luck and call Cat if you can't figure it out.
