    Need help. Possible Fried ECU?

    Late last night i was trying to hook up my hellas and in the process i drained my battery. So when going to jump my battery i accidently switched up my jumper cables :curse::curse::curse::curse::curse:


    So, went to go start up the car and got nothing. Tried to kick start it... Got nothing. Switched the Batteries... Got nothing. I let it sit over night and when i tried to turn it over i got about half a loop and then nothing...

    Is my ECU Fried? or is there something else i'm missing?

    I realize it was a retarded mistake...

        I am not sure where it is on a 318. On the 325's with the battery in the trunk, it is inline with the positive battery cable behind the trunk carpeting

                        Could be somewhere else in your harness too. You can always pull out your DME and look at it, I know I mismatched a positive and ground during my swap and connected the battery and a spark shot off of the DME casing and it was still alright...

                        Maybe you're over looking something else? Maybe a ground for the battery came loose or something?

                          Thanks for all the replies.

                          Turns out nothing is wrong??

                          I let her settle it over night and i came out and jumped started it and it started right up. I have no idea what was wrong and why it is now okay but ill roll with it. lol

                            perhaps some relays got buggered and just needed time to reset , glad its up and kickin again though, electrical issues are the pits.
