Wanted to take it out for a spin yesterday but battery was dead. Me and granddad pushed it out of garage to jump it. He put the negative on the positive and vice-versa. Hooray!
Definitely toasted the 160A in the main fuse block under the hood. Checked both sides of the fried 160 with a multimeter and it has juice. Haven't got the part or checked the starter/alternator yet. Dome lights are getting juice so the battery is intact, probably just because it is an optima. I think my stereo and amps are still good, because I had the breaker thrown to all of this.
How bad might this be? Seriously, I've never done this but I've read it is a majorly bad thing to do and FUBARs everything - ECU/. I think it broke my grandad's heart. He was offering to have it towed to a dealer last night.
