Hallo, by trying to start the MV of a friend we put plus to ground and minus to plus. Has anyone experience what´s defective now ? Fuse G7 is burned. Nothing is on work. Happy for any response kind regards Helmut

Helmut,

First, have you re-connected the battery properly, replaced the fuse, and tried to start it? You may have damaged the alternator but hopefully you just blew a fuse and your OK.

its not too bad. the diode in the cable-tree fizzled out. costs 50cents en a bit of fiddling.
