Alternator Short - Complete Power Disruption

[Sumoto]

I had a beautiful spark, forgot to unplug the battery, touched the socket to the positive terminal of the alternator, and now there is no electricity.

Is this related to what I observed when I peered under the white cover of the engine bay? All I could find was a small black box.


Otherwise, how can I find it?

I can't seem to locate them, even though I've obviously blown a big fuse. Even on the battery, I don't see any.

[Sumoto]

A multimeter reading of 0.15 volts was obtained when connected to the positive battery post under the hood with ground.

Was the relay removed from its housing?

The distribution board needs to be changed because the fuse inside has probably blown and cannot be replaced.

[Sumoto]

I got lucky, therefore it doesn't matter.

The vehicle started up immediately after I reconnected the negative battery post.

Magical.

[Sumoto]

Alright, so we can inject some serious learning into this thread by pretending it didn't reanimate in the same way it did.

The large fuses that I thought were stored behind the white box in the engine compartment are nowhere to be seen.


And here I was thinking there were some on that item about the battery distribution cap?

[Videoman]

They are not replaceable but can be accessed by unclipping the red plastic from the battery's distribution board.

[Micobe]

Is the vehicle still functional?
Is it possible for you to check for error codes and remove them?

[Bitxx]

If anything, it is a valid point up there.
Lights everything; locks.

[Sumoto]

Okay, so there was absolutely no electricity there. Zero. None.

Potentially a pyro fuse in the red distribution block.
