I am having a ground wire problem in which my dash lights blink along with my blinker. After researching this, I discovered that there is a loose/bad ground wire in front of the center console,on the firewall inside the car that causes this. What is the easiest way to get to this wire and what exactly am I looking for:confused: By ANY chance would anyone have some pics of this wires position? I have the factory manual, but its not real clear as to where its exactly located and I dont want to take anymore of the dash apart than is needed!!
 
It may be the black ground wire that connects to the dimmer switch (pin 3). If so, all you have to do is connect this black wire at the dimmer switch to ground. And if it isn't, no harm is done (since it already goes there).
 
Cool, thanx! I will take a look at that first, much easier than pulling the console and dash apart. I recently had the gauge cluster pulled out, installing white face gauges and carbon fiber trim piece. Sooo its very possible I pulled some wiring loose or something. Funny how Sundays project from last week, is now my Saturday project for this week:toobad:
