So the 4" bolt that holds the alternator worked its way out of my prelude, and it ran on the battery only for a day and drained it out, after I had parked it the battery was completely drained. (lights didnt even turn on) anyways, after that I decided to use the battery from my s2k temporarily. (jumpstart didnt work and I was facing the wrong way of a hill for a clutch start) so I used the battery and it worked, got home and put it back into my s2k. Being that I have those velvet terminal thingies I thought it was color-coded right (
on me for not checking) I matched red to red and the other one to the green one.. lights and horn go on for a sec and i pulled it off asap. I havent pulled the fuses out (because im extremely busy this week and getting to it on the weekend) but the car is basically totally off, alarm/lights/etc. etc.
so ill guess that my battery fuse is dead, has anyone else ever done this and recall what exactly needed replacing? thanks for any advice

yeah, i replaced the battery fuse and now it runs and everything.. the only issue is that now the headlights dont work and the headunit doesn't work.. i've checked headlight fuses and radio fuses, all good. can this be caused by a relay?
the AE86, im in SF.. but PM me if ur really interested
so many lookyloo's for this car

Yes the headlights work off a relay, try replacing it.
The AE86 would have to be really cheap for my friend to have it shipped across the US. I was just curious what you were asking.
