Hi all.

I just got done on a motor rebuild for my car and now it seems i have No headlights, taillights, Windows (Both sides), side view mirror adjuster, and my headlights will not go up or down.


I have checked the fuses inside the car as well as checked and replaced all my relays under the hood... They all have power.

The weird thing is i have blinkers, wipers, wiper washer, back wipers, and the i can push the *AC* button and the radiator fan kicks on *Dont ask the previous owner Fu888ed it up but atleast its getting power.*


Could a ground be an issue? all of these things worked before i parked it.

Anythoughts?? THANKS!
 
wow, super... Thanks for the help...


O well. Il try to remember the rules and not post in the newbie forum as a proven member.
 
It could be a million and one things. Check your grounds, and check for power everywhere. Replace all the fuses, as i have had fuses that look great, but were blown. It sounds like you have a missing ground somewhere tho.
 
+1 to the ground question. I would verify that before I went any further. It could have been easy to miss a ground connection when you were putting that motor back in. Have you had any other electrical gremlins?
 
Check for a shorted ignition switch. I just had my car in the shop for a no start, and it also had no taillights, fog lights, and dash lights for about a year. They replaced the switch and it came back with everything working again. Most everything in the interior runs off that wiring harness.
