Hey there,

The battery has 2 disconnects ( USA models do anyway ) - on the POS + side of the battery you will see 2 cables - one with a block on it the other has the block under the car ( I think ). These blocks are disconnects that shut off all power to the car in the event of a accident or major short circuit - I would check these to make sure they are not disconnectd.



Good luck
