I'm new to this; but hey to all glad to be here.Hopefully someone can help with my issue.So I was getting a boost from a buddy of mine and I had no idea he was jumper cable illiterate;he had his end crossed!!!!! I didn't think I would have to check behind him;so I went ahead and hooked my hot wire and when I start to test the ground it sparked a little as usual;well more than usual,but I hooked it on anyway.my other buddy (not the one who crossed the cables!!!!) cranked the car up and it fired right up.i looked over at the other end of the cables and I seen he had his crossed and I said @&$%!!!!!!!! Well needless to say the radio nor the PSD work or the keyless remote.no fuses were blown,we replaced the #6 15A relay which is the radio,compact disc changer,remote keyless entry module,PSD (power sliding door) module RH and LH,rear seat radio controller (if equipped),rear seat entertainment module (if equipped).So that wasn't it either;#19 and #25 fuses under the dash are brand new fuses but the tester won't light up when you test them.#19 is the starter interrupt relay (coil) if you refer to the owners guide,and #25 is radio (anti-theft).all other fuses when tested light up even under the hood.So please if anyone has had any exp.with the problem at hand I would greatly appreciate help cause even advanced auto is stumped and I'm clueless thanks for even taken time to read this
Thanks,Rollcage Ralph

Yeah right m8.
You need to swop out all the AA batteries under the hood. That should fix it.
