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.
bad battery, and bad alternator not keeping it charged - also bad connections to the battery or loose wire connections on the alternator.
You will have to have the code checked to know why.
I put in a new battery which went dead after a few hours of riding. The bike started when jumped and ran OK except the speedometer didn't work and the lights were dim. If you jumped it from a car you likely destroyed your stator.
If your battery was dead and you jumped it to get it started and the gauge shows your not charging you need to replace the alternator.
I had the same thing happen. The battery cable came off the battery in my case, loose connection.
have you checked the battery output? it should show right at 13.4 volts, if not, check your alternator output.
i got a 2007 mercedes benz e350, battery is dead and i need jump started but i can't open the trunk and get do it from the battery, is any other way to jumped?
ALTINATOR OR STARTER. JUMP START CAR, TAKE POSITIVE CABLE OFF BATTERY,IF CAR DIES IT IS ALTERNATOR. GOOD LUCK
Yes, a car battery can explode if jumped improperly. Car batteries contain sulfuric acid that can produce gasses. If a spark ignites the gases the battery can explode like a bomb.
matt jumped.
You need a new battery.
