This morning I was trying to jump my wife's car- it seems the batteries (12Volt Surf with 2 batteries) were both dead and after 30 minutes of jumping and nothing I decided to swap my good battery into her car. To make a long story short, I screwed up and put my battery in and then connected the positive to the negative terminal and the negative line to the Positive terminal.
Did I kill my battery? Could I have damaged anything in her car? My battery is still starting my car fine, but the alternator and voltage regulator seemed like they were extra hot yesterday. Am I just imagining things, or did I screw up my battery and it's only a matter of time before it's dead? I haven't started her car yet as the two batteries are both flat completely.
