Connected the boat battery wrong i put the negative were the positive is suppose to be and the positive were the negative is suppose to be what all could be damaged?
The starter turned backwards and tried to crank the motor backwards. Can the motor turn in that direction ? If not, I guess there could be a lot of loose gear teeth down in the bottom somewhere. This is intriguing to think about, but to be truthful, when it comes to gas engines, I really don't know what I'm talking about. Hope the damage is not too extensive/expensive.
What else can I help you with?
When you connect the positive to the negative and the negative to the positive does the battery dies?
If you connect the positive and the negative end of a battery directly with a cable, (1) you'll get dangerously high currents, and (2) the battery will quickly run out of energy. The battery itself might also get damaged, due to the high currents.
Can a dry cell battery change polarity?
No, a dry cell battery cannot change polarity. The polarity of a battery is determined by its internal chemical composition and structure, which creates a specific positive and negative terminal. While the battery can discharge and lose its charge, the inherent polarity remains fixed unless the battery is damaged or reversed in a way that alters its chemical reactions.
What it means when the battery light stays on inside of your 1998 Plymouth breeze?
Does you car starts??? if no that means your battery doesnt have enough adequate power...there are 2 things... your battery maybe damaged or your alternator is damaged causing not charging up the battery..but if your car starts..try to reset your computer by unplugging the negative battery then turn the ignition on for 20 seconds then plug the negative battery back..now check if you still have the battery lights on..cheers..
How do i replace the battery cable ends on Toyota matrix?
To replace the battery cable ends on a Toyota Matrix, first ensure the vehicle is off and disconnect the negative battery terminal followed by the positive terminal. Use a wrench to remove the old cable ends from the battery and cut off any damaged wire if necessary. Strip the ends of the wires to expose fresh copper, then attach the new cable ends by crimping or soldering them securely. Finally, reconnect the positive terminal first, followed by the negative terminal.
How do you remove a battery tray on Citroen c3?
To remove the battery tray on a Citroen C3, first, ensure the vehicle is turned off and the keys are removed. Disconnect the negative battery terminal followed by the positive terminal, and then remove the battery itself. Once the battery is out, locate and unscrew any fasteners or clips securing the battery tray. Carefully lift the tray out of its position, ensuring that no wires or components are damaged in the process.
Can a FM radio be damaged when installing a car battery?
Not very likely even if you connected the battery in reverse. But with electronics it is possible. More than likely if you did this it just blew the fuse.
Can you use damaged car battery?
It really depends on how the battery is damaged. Generally, you cannot use a damaged battery for the following reason: Batteries contain lead and liquid acid. If the battery case is damaged, acid will spill from the affected cells of the battery and those cells will not function. Since the cells of a lead acid battery are connected in series, failure of any one cell means failure of the entire battery. If the damage is limited to the battery posts, the battery can sometimes be made to work by various means of tightening the cable clamps to the posts. This is a temporary fix that can be used in a pinch and it should be repaired properly as soon as possible.
Can you jump start a polaris fourwheeler?
Yes, you can jump-start a Polaris four-wheeler, typically by using jumper cables and a compatible vehicle or a jump starter. Make sure to connect the positive terminal of the dead battery to the positive terminal of the working battery, and the negative terminal of the working battery to a grounded metal surface on the four-wheeler. Always consult the owner's manual for specific instructions and safety precautions before attempting a jump-start. If the battery is old or damaged, replacement may be necessary.
What happens when you put the negative cable on the positive post of battery when giving a jump to a 2001 Kia Sportage?
Bad things can happen. The battery may explode or you may damage the electrical system. Then again you may only see a large spark and nothing can be damaged. You never know so just make sure to never, ever, do this.
What is the positive or negative state of an object?
The positive or negative state of an object typically refers to its charge in the context of physics, where positive and negative charges determine how objects interact with each other through electromagnetic forces. In a broader sense, it can also relate to an object's condition or quality, such as being in a positive state of functioning well or a negative state of being damaged or ineffective. The interpretation can vary depending on the specific context in which the terms are used.
What happens if the positive DC voltage is replaced with a negative DC source?
A negative DC source could be connected in such a way as to act as a positive DC source. I'm not sure why you would want to flip it - supplying power "the wrong way" could cause equipment failures, protective systems (such as fusing) to not provide protection, and general other bad things.
Should you use a damaged Duracell battery?
No. You don't use a damaged battery because, it will malfunction and may explode.
