Asked by SKAY Dec 26, 2012 at 12:13 PM about the 1998 Volvo S90 Sedan

Question type: General

while jumping my volvo s90 1998, I made a mistake on connecting the cables. I connected the negative to
the positive and the positive to the negative instead. since then the car won't start anymore. the engine
turns over, but won't start. it really crank like it's going to start but never start the engine. I checked all
fuses, and they seemed to work fine. Now I'm wondering where the problem cold be. I need your help
please.

I have seen this from experience on a 98 ford f-250. you more than likely fried the engine computer, at least thats what happened on the truck. Hope this helps, but hoping its not the case. Not a cheap part to replace.
