2007 rdx

Hi everyone,

So it has been a long 2 days with no car. I need held. So Triple A came out and installed the new battery prior to changing the alternator and they hooked it up incorrectly (idiots) they put the negative where the positive was and vice versa. So now my car in completely dead I went to buy another NEW battery and nothing. I took a looked at the main fuse and main fuse 1 was blown replaced it and car wanted to start but each time I start it, it is blowing that same fuse. I think there is a short somewhere. Can someone elaborate if something similar has happened to them. Thanks!

I would call AAA back and get them to fix your RDX. It shouldn't be your responsibility to fix if they made it worse.

Any idea what it might be?

Check all your fuses I would say if it cranked and wouldnt start could be fuel issue. I would start with a volt meter and test light to determine what is getting power and what isn't
