ok heres the deal, so me and my friend were working on my ae86(gts), and misplaced the battery terminals....

whats the worst that could happen, i have checked the fuses, and the car is doing nothing, not even my clock is coming on.my head relay on my engine bay is clicking...not sure if it is normal.
thanks in advance

check all the fuses in the bay and the cabin.... i did it on a civic and it just popped the 80a by the battery

also check the fuses on the positive terminal

WAH!! wait.

check where the wire is terminated to the battery terminal. There should be like 2 10mm bolts.... sometimes it gets coroded.
