I wish i'd seen this yellow wire thing sooner!! HELP!  |
Get a resistor say about 1500 to 2500 ohms and install that resistor as I've stated before (between the cut yellow wire on the car side and black reference wire) connect a battery charger and try to start your car. Leave it sit for 11 minutes and try it again. If it still doesn't start, let it sit another 11 minutes. This could take up over a half hour to complete but should get you going again.
