HELP! No electrical power!
So my car has been sitting for almost six months.
Today For some reason I thought I would start it up.
Started by putting in some fresh fuel, hooked up the jumper pack and cranked the engine over with the injectors diconnected for about a minute.
Hooked up the injectors and she started first go!
Disconnected the jump starter and left it idling for about 5 min.
Jumped in stuck it in reverse, there was a noticeable drop in the rpm. I assumed it was because the battery wasn't at it's peak. Reved it up a little then attempted to back it up, all of a sudden it cuts out!
There are now no dash lights, the alarm light isn't flashing.
I reconnect the jumper pack assuming I stalled it and the battery is shit... No difference even with different ground positions.
I quickly checked all the fuses and found that none are burnt.
At this point I was late for work and had to leave.
So I am sending this from my phone in the hope that someone can give me some tips as to were to start!
