Exactly where did you connect your positive & negative jump leads on the van?
Hopefully just a blown fuse or 2.

Your Boxer van has an under bonnet booster/charging connection and an earth point also to avoid getting to the battery compartment. It is likely you have blown fuses.
The earth point looks like a "wrongly fitted bolt" - it is a longish small bolt that sticks out from the end of the bonnet landing panel.

The reason i was asking exactly where you connected is because the proper earth point you are meant to use (shown in the pic above) is not that obvious. The wiper motor bracket looks ideal to use as a negative as its nice clean bare metal, The problem is its on rubber mounts & the several hundred amps from the starter motor passes through the couple off mm thick wire & burns out the main under bonnet harness :shock:
I think later models actually have a warning sticker on this bracket now to warn you not to use it as an earth.
Yes check all the fuses, there may be more than one blown.
