When we got back from Dallas we realized we'd left Jenna's car door open for 3 days and of course her battery was dead. The next day I pushed her car out of the garage to jump it off. Her terminals were marked "+" and "-" instead of red and black and when my first attempt to jump start the car failed I noticed I had read them backwards. Probably due to the fact I was trying to keep Noah out of the engine compartment and it was starting to rain. I fixed them and the car started...except the dash no longer worked. I had blown the 120 AMP main fuse to the cabin. The one that powers the internal fuse box. So no electronics on the inside of the car worked.
Well today I get an appointment at the Mitsubishi place to fix it. So I take Jenna's car and start down the road. It's a 15 minute drive and I just figure I'll have to be careful. My blinkers, brake lights, and whatnot all work. Just the dash, interior lights, etc. don't.
I get to the Fay business district exit on 540 when it starts to rain. No big deal, except the windshield wipers don't work. No big deal, because the Rain-X has the windshield where I go see. Then the windshield starts to fog. No big deal, except the defrost doesn't work. No big deal since I can still crack my window, except the windows won't roll down. I end up pulling off the road to open the door long enough for the windows to clear up.
I eventually arrived safely. The guy said the parts company delivered the wrong fuse so I had to wait 45 minutes. While I was waiting he offered to change my battery wire to a red one. I was very thankful.
