s13 electrical issue

[rednissan180]

I just dropped my ka24de into my new car i just bought because the motor in it had a spun bearing...After everything was together and wired up, when i went to connect the battery the battery terminals began to smoke and sizzle (no i did not hook the battery up backwards)....What should i check? I pulled the alternator harness off and looked at it and it seemed fine?...i was told it could be the alternator, starter, alt harness, or ecu

(the motor i put in this car was running fine out of my other car)

Any advice??? :sadwavey:

Thanks,
jesse

I would try using the harness off of the other motor.

I sold the other car......... :(
but i plan on trying another harness to see if thats all it is...i hope...

The other car i sold as a shell, all i took was the motor and trans, and left the wiring on the car
