Well today after I helped my friend put a y7 into his rex we had to jump his car to get it started and he left my car on while jumping it. I heard that this is bad and now a few hourslater while the car was running it stopped and everything just shut off. now when i try to start the car it wont start, no interior lights are on. Does anyone have any idea what it might be? Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanx.

Check all of your fuses and clean your batery terminals. Also have your alternator checked.

I think it is my alternator. I tried to check all of my fuses, but it is dark out and I dont have a flash light. Oh well. I will just check it out in the morning.
