Alternator cooked. Anything else damaged?
was putting a new battery into my 300D, and in my rushed state I failed to realize the previous owner had used red wire as the ground and black as the positive and I reversed the polarity. Smoke came out of the alternator, and now the battery light is illuminated when the key is out. Take a look at the video to see what I mean. Will I just need a new alternator? Car still starts and electronics seem to be working
