help me please...odd question
Ok, you guys are probably going to laugh about this, but I'm not happy. I let my brother borrow my car over while I was gone in Saudi Arabia and now it won't start. I guess last week the battery died. Well, he went to jump start it and now it won't start at all. Apparently what he did is he reversed the polarity when attaching the cables to my car. He has the negative side to the positive side of the battery and the positive side to the engine block. I can see how he was confused because for some stupid unknown reason, my car has black cable coming from the pos side and red cable going to the negative side. Is this normal? Why would anyone ever, ever have done that!? Anyway, I tried to jump my car -the right way- and nothing happens. I don't get anything, even a light when its hooked up. I checked all the fuses and they're all good. Could anything have happened to hurt the car while it was hooked up wrong? Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Tim

Check your grammar... I did not understand most of your post.
I would try unplugging your battery and jumping it over from a good one. Your battery could be completely grounded out.
Second, I would look for damage on the relays since the fuses didn't fry.
Lastly, beat your brother over the head a few times.
