Hello folks,
I was on vacation for four weeks and wanted to start my truck up again today.
The battery was dead, I took another battery and a jumper cable and wanted to start the truck. I connected the cable and stupidly didn't look properly, because I was in a rush and connected the battery the wrong way round. I am an Idiot...
I then got into the truck and noticed that I had no electricity. Then I got out again because I thought the cable wasn't connected properly and saw smoke on the battery.
I immediately disconnected it and then connected the battery the right way around. After that, the truck also started, the engine is running now, but I have various problems.
The central locking no longer works, the radio no longer turns off. The ABS and the airbag lamp light up. I have absolutely no gauges on the instrument panel, all gauges such as oil pressure, battery charge, radiator temperature remain at 0.
Does anyone have an idea what I may have destroyed there and where to start looking?
I could get really desperate right now and slap myself...
Thanks in foreward for your support....
