yea pele i can use one of those, my dad and i are electricians. so what should i do for cranking? ill buy a new battery in a 2 weeks because i havent been working but when i get paid i will. the main fuse box looked good so ill check the one below the steering wheel. could it be the anti theft system not allowing the car to start?

 

Hey you should post a video of you trying to start it. That will be the closest to havin us all actually looking at it in person. Try to start it in park or neutral, and make sure to show us all of the things that turn on, i.e. (dash lights, headlights, ac, wipers, radio, anything and everything). then post (good) pictures of the fuse block in the engine bay and the one under the dash near your brake pedal.

P.S. Always stay with the most common reasons for your problems. Don't go off in a tangent looking into another possibility because it could waste alot of your time. I have learned this the hard way many times. So for now look into your fuses and wiring.

 

alright masa ill make a video tomorrow

<scratches head> Is not the longer cable with stripe supposed to be the negative? Actually, I just checked on my S4 and the longer cable with the stripe is negative. You have it hooked up to the positive terminal of the battery.

 

oh my god i am an idiot -__-

 

acid shock you were right dude now i just have to switch out the fuel pump and get a new main fuse. thanks to everyone who posted and thanks to rx7club

It is also possibly you damaged the rectifier that is built-in to the alternator as well. I would pull it off and get it tested at your local parts store (Autozone, Advance Auto, etc). It is free to do this and it might save you some headache later.

 

how could i have damaged that?

 

What I said was basically a quote from the Factory Service Manual. It warns against hooking up the cables backwards so as to avoid damaging the rectifier.

 

o crap ill check it out then ahha
