    Default positive and negitive wires sparked

    Hi All,
    I accediently touched the positive and negitive wire used for mobilephone charging in my VY Acclaim. I got a spark .The car in not starting now and the display says contact service centre and the engine image is comming up on the dash board. Radio, head and indicator lights are working. But interior lights, power windows, hazard light and centre locking are not working. Can somebody help me find the problem.
    Best regards, Thanks.

    this is a VY in the VZ section so Im not sure if their different - BUT I did the same thing in my VZ when I stupidly had the radio on while plugging the mobile phone adapter in ... and was a blown fuse under the steering wheel.

    This said tho
    Radio, head and indicator lights are working
    is interesting, as it should at least kill the radio as well and I think internal lighting or something similar.

    But I'd try the fuse box first especially for fuses related to the things that aint working like ignition etc ... then if its still acting up ... be worried!
