Jump start reversed polarity now nothing

That sort of thing can badly damage management system, relays, melts connection, fuses. There is a fuse for the computer, check your manual. But get it diagnosed.

Try resetting the CPU program as it may be corrupted from reverse polarity. Have the ECM checked out as reversed polarity tends to damage them internally.

Honda Pilot 2003 won't start. batter is good. seems to be an electrical issue because starter won't turn at all and there are strange clicking noises when key is turned

I would be re-checking the battery. Make sure that when you have it tested they do a "load test". Sometimes a battery can seem good, but be bad when there is a large load placed on it. This test will reveal if that is the case. It could also be a starter problem, and it is possible (but unlikely) that it is a wiring problem.

sorry to say , get a voltmeter and go through the wiring starting at the fuse box and follow on from there, that includes the ground circuits, its time consuming but revesing polarity can cause untold damage

Starter motor will crank the engine,but engine won't start

check all fuses including the larger ones under the hood in the distribution box. You probably blew a fuse hopefully you didnt damage the ecu
