Goddamn boys.. I need yall help!!
Few days ago started up 2005 Ls43 UL after being dead over the winter. I had the pulley whining issue, so had a mobile mechanic come by to change the belt/pulleys and boost the car. He replaced the items.. but when tried boosting with a portable one, car couldnt start. Then he jumper cabled the battery and car turned on for 5 mins.. then shut off in ON ignition. Car started smoking in the rear, turns out, rear battery caught on fire. Was able to put out fire, call the fire guys get the battery removed, but most of my wiring on the passenger side are fried..
Dropped it off to mechanic, he put in a new battery and car runs fine.. windows/locks most stuff working (expect tail light on right side) but told me oem cost for wiring is like 10-12k so insurance will write it off.
Ive spent prob triple the amount fixing and repairs etc. Obviously I will try to buy back car and get whatever I can and try getting it fixed.
If yall can help me out with parts, would be amazing.
