More than likely it will blow the fuse. It could possibly do other damage. You will know when you replace the fuse.
You can't recharge it hooked up in reverse. You will destroy the battery or the charger if you try it.
Disconnect battery from vehicle - if this still happens battery is probably shorted internally and requires replacement
Because it is suppose to start if the battery is hooked up.
Electrons flow through wires that are hooked to a battery. The battery's negative terminal repels the electrons, while the positive terminal attracts them.
You'll need an external power source (such as a battery charger or another car hooked to battery cables) in order to start your vehicle. A battery which is truly depleted - not just discharged - will not take a charge from the alternator, and will need to be replaced.
The meter on your battery charger will be in the green
the alternator
This is because each time the battery is disconnected, the computer in the car loses power. When the new battery is hooked up, the computer system needs to be reset to stop the lights from blinking.
When replacing the battery on my son's Kawasaki Vulcan 500, I accidentally hooked up the battery backwards. I had purchased an EverStart battery from Wal-Mart and the orientation of the main battery terminals was backwards from the original battery. Anyway, it blew the main fuse located in the left hand side side cover.
When a battery is hooked up to an open circuit, no current flows because the circuit is not complete. The voltage across the open circuit is equal to the battery voltage, but no electrical work is done since there is no flow of electrons. The energy stored in the battery remains as potential energy until a complete circuit is established.
yes
Well the wiring was probably fried, but that is because the terminals were hooked to the wrong wires. Although when you hook a battery up backwards there are many sparks, i do not see how someone would not have noticed that it was hooked up wrong.
