Hi today jump started *with a jump pack that has reverse polarity protection* my 1997 Vauxhall Corsa B Sport 1.4 16V after being sat for a very long time.

It started and was running for several seconds then removed the jump pack leads but it then immeadiately died? tried jump pack again and made error noise so tried normal battery charger amps jumped straight upto max 5 amps? so then disconnected all battery leads and connected directly to battery terminals then acted normally like a dead battery. I could not swap out battery today as do no have tools to get the clamp off.

So could i of killed my ecu somehow when removing the leads? obviously hoping is a fuse or something so did a visual check on all fuses above ecu but looked ok?
