[Mk2] [Generic] Battery connected wrong way round. Electrical gremlins
Jump starting this morning, somehow managed to connect the battery the wrong way around . Realised my mistake connect to the right way and car started - now the electric windows don't work, the radiator fan is constantly on and the heater unit doesn't function.
Any ideas please?
