Last night when i turned the car off, it smelled like overheating and there was a loud spinning noise coming from the back middle engine area somewhere..sounds like its around the starter. I disconnected the battery, and soon as its connected again, the spinning noise starts and wont stop. Smells like burning wires or rubber. What is this??
