Battery went bad after 5 years so I replaced. I was anxious to get on the lake and reversed the connectors. After figuring out I had done this I switched them and now everything works electronically with the exception of the radio. In addition it will crank but not turn over. I assume the radio and starter/engine have reverse polarity detection. How do I resolve this. I have gone through the regal owners manual and all I can find is that both the Main Engine and are not on the main fuse box. Instead they connect to the same breaker box. The engine is a 50AMP and the radio is a 30AMP. Both are red push buttons. Do I neeed to replace the breakers? Is there a way to reset? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
