Default 2003 ES 300 Jump started with cables Reversed

Hello My mother has a 2003 ES 300 battery went dead when they were attempting to jump start it with my Mega cab Diese ( I.E. 2 brand new large batteries ) The cabels were connected backwards for around 30 seconds They said the horn was honkingh and the lights were flashing!!

Now I have minimal interior lights.....a red security key light right above the radio and that is it nothing when I try and jump it my self???


Is there a "main buss fues"? ?? If yes where can I find this fues?

Could this ruin the battery if it was old ???

What is the red light / Picture of a key telling me ???

Anti Theft activated??

Please help !!

Thanks in advance

Wow, that's a major boo boo. Hope the damage isn't too bad.

It's cheap to buy one at Napa or such ($5), but it's a hassle to get out. It's bolted in from under the fuse box so you have to remove the air box and fuse box to get at it. Even then, it's a contorted job.

Here's a very helpful youtube video I followed:
