hey everyone, just installed a new alternator for my 1200 ute, had the battery on a battery charger while doing the job, when all was said and done. I put the battery back in, connected positive first and then as soon as the negative cable went on it sparked, (small), but behind the battery where the cables and wires run, a puff of smoke came out and that electrical burning smell was in the air. From what i could see only one of the wires from the positive cable had been burnt. Tried to start the car, and no sound was heard at all.
Anyone know how to fix this problem or has anyone had it before? is it just a wiring replacement from the positive to the starter? and how thick/thin would the wire have to be? Desperately need help.
Cheers, Sam
