can anyone help please. Recently bought a 2001 yaris cdx. i changed the battery and unfortunatly, the positive terminal hit the negative battery connection. As a result something has blown, i have no electrical mirrors, windows, the dashboard is dead, the AC is not working nor the cental locking and have no rear lights. i do have front lights though. i believe i may have blown a module???????????? anyone got any ideas... Thanks a lot..

There are 3 primary fusible links that connect directly to the battery: ABS, ALT, and MAIN. Since you have working headlights, I think the ALT is the blown one. The Fusible link block is the block attached to the positive battery terminal.
