my car has been stood for a while and i have to jump it off everytime i work on it, yesterday i jumped car off with mains powered jumppack and i took a wile tostart usually fires up first time, i move car and replaced a door, then i went to move my car back, i connected the jumppack and went to start the car and smoke was filling the drivers side of the car looked like it was coming from the footwell, i immediatley disconeted the jump pack and pondered for a while then gave it another go, upon connecting again the crocadile clips felt like they were sticking to the battery, then BOOM the battery exploded :(



any ideas please

yup

I would start with the wiring to the door as that is what has changed so would be the most likely suspect to begin with.

thinking exactly the same, im going to undo the 2 blue block plugs in footwell and coneect the wires from my old door to mirrors, door motor etc and see what happens
