MX5 MK3 2.0 OBD Port Not working....

Gerryn has a good point here.

 

My friend has an early MR2, where he recently fitted the battery the wrong way around.

This took out a fused link.

Not a fuse, as such, but a short length of wire which acts like a fuse.

This was hidden inside the wiring harness, and took him a few days to locate.

 

 I guess it’s unlikely, but does the MX5 have anything similar ???

 

 

NO (thank god) The main fuse protects the car from reverse battery connection. I’m amazed that an MR2 has this feature, or where it’s located. - Also a risk if damage to the loom, or worse case, a fire?
