Ok so I'm on my way to work last night and leaving my hood I run over some ice/snow, still about 6 inches in spots. And well I scrape a little and my lights dim and then go back to normal. Well when this happened my radio went out, my gauges, my powerlocks/windows, turnsignals, wipers, heat, mirrors and everything electrical inside my car stoped working except for my lights, and hazards. So I'm thinking I blew a fuse of some sort, but which one? I have an alarm installed that also does not work anymore. I pulled and checked some of the fuses in the fuse panel and the ones I pulled looked ok, is there a main fuse or something somewhere?

I pulled the 40 amp fuse(AM1) off my car and it controls all your accessories not your ignition. Here is what quit working that I know is still hooked up to my factory wiring when I removed that fuse.
Turn signals power mirrors power windows heater/ac fan sunroof stereo My ignition worked fine and my altenator seemed to be working. Your charging system is not working because one of these accessories is probably shorting out the car.I would look for a wire that is caught between something or pinched.I would also check up under the dash since you had to install the clutch pedal, you might have messed something up down there.If you had to drill a hole in the firewall, make sure the metal shavings are not shorting something down by all those wire clips. Did you remove the motor and tranny while doing the swap or just the tranny? I would go over all the wires one by one and also have a relative or friend go over it also and look for cut, bare, or pinched wires. |
