Weird electrical problem

[Mrdrd_Laser]

Changed the oil in my car yesterday and the wrench I was using for the drain plug touched the alternator when I wasnt paying attention and sparked. Long story short, the windows wont go up or down, interior lights wont come on, brake lights dont work, CD player doesnt work, headlight motors dont work, and the seatbelt motors dont work either. I've checked the fuses for the things that arent working and they all seem to be fine.

Check the 80 amp fuse under the hood..the Clear one

... I'm sorry... but.. xDDDD

My friend did that with my car.. and he litteraly pissed himself. Thought he was on fire.

Anyway, it likely blew the ALT fuse. It's the huge 80 Amp one with two bolts on the bottom that hold it in. Don't just tug on the fuse, you'll rip the guts out.. and if it's not bad then you have to go buy a new one cause you just broke it.

That was my issue.

You've checked all fuses both under the dash and under the hood? The 80amp fuse is next to the battery and is a small square box with a clear top.
