altezzaclub Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 any thoughts on why it burnt out You did it wrong.. as you are going to do a lot of thigs wrong in the next 10years! :laff: But don't worry, after that you'll be sweet! I bought my first car as soon as I got my licence at 15 too. Basically you connected the battery +ve to earth somehow and pushed 500amps down a wire that is probably melted by now! Anyway- do you have a wiring diagram? Find one of those over the net somewhere, and chase a workshp manual for the car on Fleabay or 2nd-hand bookshops or whatever. Take a camera down to your local wrecker and photograph any KEs down there, make notes about which wire goes where. I don't know how a KE55 does it, I have a KE70. To replace the big wires off the battery terminal either hit the wrecker or see a battery shop with your old one. They can make a copy. Quote
