Ok so heres the story for those of you who care: My car died on me one day and i left it for a few days and tried starting it again and just got a bunch of clicks. Later i figure out that a few wires from the battery are corroded. ( Power wire from the pos. terminal to starter, and the ground wire from the neg. terminal.)


NOW FOR MY ISSUE(s): When i turn my head lights on i get this clicking/buzzing from the fuse box. :confused: and my tail lights were both working and all have new bulbs, now one whole tail light is out also. COULD THIS BE DUE TO BAD RELAYS? WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO REPLACE THE RELAYS OR FIX THIS PROBLEM??? help please!!!:thumb:


im sorry for all these posts but i bought this car for 1500 and trying to fix all these little problems. thanks a lot guys!
 
Start with the problem you have already identified, then get back to us. It is possible fixing the main power and ground will fix this.
 
A bad/uncharged battery could cause this. Give it a boost and see what happens. If you get it started, check the alternator.
