When you tried to start the motor with the battery polarity reversed, you probably damaged some circuitry in the motor, possibly the computer. You probably are going to need diagnostic equipment and the skills to know how to use it to fix it. If you don't have the gear and the skills, you're going to have to seek out a competent outboard repairman. Suggestion: put a dab of flame red nail polish on the top of the PLUS terminals of your batteries and on the exterior of the clamps on the PLUS cables of your wiring. Next time you mess around with the battery, terminals and cables, if you don't see "RED" everywhere, stop what you are doing.
