(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Sorta odd..Any ideas?I can hear it ticking away with no signals or hazards on.
More to the puzzle:Occaisionally when I signal left(and left only) it blows the associated fuse instantly. Could the relay be the cause?Or some issue inside the column? Thanks in advance! |

Ok,so after installing the proper relay,it worked for a bit(No soft ticking anymore)
then popped the fuse again. I was playing with the signal bucket(Front) and heard the fuse pop.The connector on the back of the signal bucket looked pretty gruesome,so I swapped in another. Lights now signal,except the side marker is now dead. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) The bulb is good on the side marker. I also noticed that the driving lights(driving lights I mean the ones in the tail and markers) don't work on that side either now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (front or tail,when the headlight switch is out halfway or fully) Also,you know when you have the stalk left or right when the car is off,the funny euro parking light thing?That function also is gone on this side. Weird.. So in summary: This is only the drivers side!Pass side is fine across the board. -Blinkers work minus the side marker. -Brake lights work as normal -Headlights are fine -Driving lights(the ones in the taillights and markers) don't light up front or rear -Hazards work minus side marker -Parking light function is gone too. -Doesn't blow fuses anymore though.. Which wire or wires have I buggered up on the drivers side front and side markers? Or is it some other problem? Apologies in advance for my less than vast knowledge of electrical. PS:Is it possible the new(old from a parts car) Relay shit the bed while I was fooling around blowing fuses? |
