So, came down to get the car last night and noticed that my dad hooked the battery back up sometime this winter but didn't close the hatch all the way. The battery was dead so i got a charger out to jump start it. Right whrn i started the charger some funky stuff started happening. The methanol pump started to kick in full blast without the key even being in thr ignition. And when I turned the key on all of my gauges started to flicker and jump some and my driver window rolled down on its own. I didn't try to start the car since I probably hae cold side piping full of methanol. The door open alarm sounded like a dying bird. Then i started to notice smoke coming from behind the head unit... Anyone havr any idea what the hell is going on?

Bad/low voltage causes alot of problems with these cars. A new battery would probably fix most, if not all, of those issues.

Could be a bad ground too
