Electrical problem
1987 Ford F150

my truck has a inertia switch that has been discharged and now will not reset. Also the grounding wire to the battery is smoking when I try to start my truck. I checked the fuel line and it is not getting any gas either. All of this occured because of a breaking and entering into my truck to steal the radio. The thiefs got under the hood and disconnected the battery. Not sure if they did any other damage or not.

when you say grounding wire do you mean the ground cable on the battery?

if not what one do you mean?

the inertia switch if it wont reset you will probably need another one, check the fuses also.
