2001 Mercedes Benz Engine Size unknown Two Wheel Drive Manual 106000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I left my interior light on over 4 days and needed a jump start. A Car park security man used a portable jump start pack but put the leads on the wrong way round.
After switching the leads over and it still not working he told me I then had to call out the RAC.
Subsequently the fuse for my power steering is faulty (it does not cut off when I switch the engine off)
In your experience do you feel this is due to the leads being out on the wrong way round?
Also when I spoke to security they said that because the start up pack is only 12v it wouldn't have harmed it??? Is this true?
