If you connected the cables backwards you are actually lucky- lucky you didn't fry both cars- lucky the battery didn't explode in your face- think- it could have been so much worse- NOW- how bad is it? usually, a botched jump start might only smoke some diodes in the alternator but this wouldn't keep the car from starting- do you have your own scanner and run codes? amazing- but you might be in over your head on this one- some pro help, a good mechanic, even the Dodge dealer might help you find what part of the computer or electrical sensors you fried.
