Then it becomes a question of which battery was stronger which direction the jumper car's generator was trying to push the current. Sometimes reversing the battery can reverse the polarization on the generator so that the whole car can be running reverse polarity. In that case it's just the same as reversing the jumper cables. This really is just too hypothetical. What have you done and what seems to be the problem now. > How could you tell if the computer was ruined. Car won't start. Don't get the right relay clicks when you turn the key on. Don't get the right clicks when you push the throttle down (listening to the injectors of the unstarted engine, 70-73 only.) -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
