Find the other blown fuses. I'm surprised it didn't blow the main fuse when hooking up the batter backward. I have a 2IS, but there are several fuse box locations. You need to locate the fuel pump fuse and see what else is blown there. Also, with no clusters lighting, I'd locate the fuses related to that.

Look here .... http://my.is/forums/f114/interior-fu...k-here-425422/

I think there must be one in the engine bay as well. Got a manual?

That symptom sounds very familiar. I think this happened to a guy over in the 2IS forum.

Hoping it’s not the alternator, but all in all I can’t think of anything else it could be. Praying to god it’s not the ecu or a burned wire somewhere.The ETCS fuses mentioned in the second and third link I checked still look good. Has to be one of these issues though but I feel a little better about my situation now. Few threads I found are all generally saying the same things. Thanks for all you guys’ help!!
