RE: electical problems
If it is that bad, you should look for trashed/frayed/destroyed wires, and
see if your windshield is leaking water onto your fuse box. My 8v leaked
water onto the fuse box, and it did strange things with the lights, and
instrument cluster also. Good luck,
Gary Huff
P.S. Rewiring is not that hard. It just takes time, and a lot of patience to
do.

Subject: electical problems
I'm having a problem with the passenger side turn signals comming on and
staying on as soon as I turn the key key and supply power to the rest of the
car. The drivers side operate normally, but the problem side dosen't cause
the indicator in the guage cluster to flash when I signal to turn left. Just
the other day I was driving to the store (looking like a dork cause my
passenger turn signal are always lit) and I activated the passenger side
turn signal and the car died.
here is what I know so far:
1. when the car died the fuel pump fuse blew and the relay fried.
I know cause I tested the fried one, supply power and no buzzz at
the pump, use a jumper wire and it buzzes like it should so the
pump works.
2. replaced fuse and just bought a new relay....waiting to put it
(relay) in because I don't want to fry another one
3. when ever the passenger side turn signals are activated (car off
ignition in the on position) the fuel pump makes a slight buzz)
what I need to know know is.....
1. what wire(s) could I possibly cut so that I can get those turn
signal light off and drive my car!!!!!!!!
2. or how can I fix the turn signal wireing so that I can drive my
car and still have turn signals
NOTE: the turn sigals are ALOT brighter than they normally are supposed to
be (refering to the problem side)
HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANKS IN ADVANCE
