Greetings. I am posting on behalf of my father because he has limited time to find out information because of business.

The car: 2009 Audi A5 3.2L V6 (I can try to find out more info if necessary)

The problem: it won't start

What happen: His friend tried to jump the car for him, but had reverse the jumper cables by accident. The car then refused to start. My dad had the battery replaced, but it still won't start. He tells me it has the electronic key that you insert and it suppose to start up the car that way.

I am not familiar with this type of car. I am wondering if anyone knew a possible solution to this. He thinks that there is some sort of fuse he has to reset or replace but he is not really familiar with the newer electronic car systems and is having difficulties finding a solution.

Thanks. And if this is not the correct space to post, please forgive me, and possibly direct me to a better place.

The main fuse panel is on the left side of the dash, visible behind a pop-off compartment door. The manual should show a schematic of the fuses. It's possible that having the jumper cables in reverse caused one or more to blow. Hopefully, it's not something more involved, requiring a service visit. If so, I wouldn't mention the jumper cable thing.
