Driving the car and suddenly it turned off. Luckily I was turning into the parking lot of my destination.
I blew the ignition 30a fuse. Popped a new one in there and it blew the moment the key went to ACC.
Tore the interior apart. Tried the ECU method from a previous post. Couldn't even do that, since the fuse blew right away.
Found some wires from an old alarm system, taped those up and removed what I could.
Checked the connections on the fuel pump retire, all soldered and taped up.
Digging in the engine compartment and found nothing.
So I am pulling the alternator and will get it checked out and/or replaced.
I'm getting stumped. This is my daily driver, and she needs to get up and running. She does turn 18 in Feb, maybe I should kick her out of the house...
