Backwards battery

[AbsoluteSpeed]

The battery was put in backwards when my dad tried moving the car after I caught someone breaking in to it. I replaced a 30amp fuse and the fusible link but it still will not start.

Lights come on, it cranks but wont fire. It has been sitting for almost a month after the crank started knocking.

What else could it be?

Check for a spark with a cheap test light from the auto part store.

I am glad you said that or else I may have tried it. :biglaugh:

I will check the EFI fuse and for spark.
Is the EFI fuse in the main fuse box?

It's in the engine bay box.

As Jdub said, it's in the main box. pull the big round fuse closest to the fender and pull the fuse that is closest to the fender and the battery. It's in the corner. It's a 15 amp.

Or just turn on the key and look at the MIL. If it lights the fuse is good...

MIL?

Mothers I'd love ... no wait

Malfunction Indicator Lamp...the correct name for what many people call the check engine light.

Haha nice.

So there MIL (check engine light) is not coming on so that means I have to replace the round relay right?

 

[HommerSimpson]
