Sounds like one of the mega fuses has blown. They are there to protect the car from such events...

Thank very much

Have found my problem
I really thot a was in big trouble there all because of 1 fuse
150amp was gone
So lessons are not to believe in what t4 tells you about fuses lol and most importantly is to disconnect battery on anything that involves power leeds lol oops

Glad its sorted

Mine was caused by by some one jump starting it, at least the mega fuse is a cheap fix...

Glad you got it sorted out ;)

As you found out T4 doesn't do blown fuses very well, I always use visual inspection and or multimeter ;)

In the case if the Mega fuse or the other high value fuses it's best to remove the fuse then check with a meter ;)
