Won't start had power tried to jump it and cables were put on wrong and it melted the battery. Got a new battery, but it still won't start.

Hi,

If the starter isn't engaging, the first thing to check is fuse 2 in the high-current battery junction box, it is fuse 2 that we need to check. Even if it appears good, confirm there is power to and from it. Here is a link you may find helpful:

I attached a couple of pictures below. The first one is from the schematic. The second is the fuse. Last is the location of the high-current battery junction box.

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.

Take care,

joe
