Last night my car wouldnt start. ive been having a weak battery problem. so i asked a guy for a jump. he hooked the cables up wrong, now i cant get my car to start. the engine turns and starts up, but a second after it shuts back off. also the radio, cigarette lighter, and dash lights dont work. (no check engine light, oil light.. nothing) the door ajar light Does work, and if i have the key in the ignition and the door open, it beeps to let me know,, the door is ajar. anyway. i read that hooking the cables backwards might blow a 250 amp -Mega- Fuse (which i cannot locate) or fry my computer thingy .. the ecm / ecu (of which i also cannot locate) please help.
You can do more damage trying to fix it youself if you don't know what is really wrong. I suggest you bring it to a mechanic to check out the damage. It also could be a simple thing like replacing the fuseble Links.
First check that the battery is connected properly - to body ground and + to engine. Make sure battery is fully charged before installing. Good luck
