Car dont start after loseing the minus cabel

m3rso · 10-02-2012, 12:00 AM

I have problems with the key to unlock the car. And somebody told me to lose the minus pole on the battery. So I did and now the car wont start. It cranks but then nothing happends. On the panel the service indication is appearing. Have tried with a help from a another car with cabels, but that dont work either. Help please.

IIRC, the negative cable contains the IBS, so your battery may have to be re-registered. I'd have a dealer or experienced indy mechanic handle it.
