So... I bought a 325i a few weeks ago. Decided to get a new battery because the PO was using an improper size. Both terminals use black wires... And I hooked it up backwards . I didn't realize my mistake until after I had tried starting the car. Went back and swapped the terminals around. The car starts but now battery light and antilock brake light is on (even when the car is off) There is a burning smell coming from the alternator. I am guessing that is toast. Windows work, lights work, no radio though. I am hoping it is just the alternator and radio... Anything else I should look for???
