Check all the fuses while you're at it.
|
Done this before...
Check the room fuse, it'll be blown for sure. Also check the ECU fuses. |
The Retractor fuse in the engine fuse box plays a role in the lights popping up.
|
i put a new main fuse in it just instantly heats up like its gonna pop so i pulled it out and what the hell is a room fuse
|
checked all fuses in car to retractor fuse is also good
|
You most likely frayed/burned some wires in connecting the battery up incorrectly.
|
put in the new main fuse and now i have nada not a damn thing like no power anywhere in the car
!!!!!! |
the only reason i dont believe i melted wires is because there was not a single puff of smoke and the terminal was only touched for a split second

alright theres a direct short between the headlight retractor fuse and the one right next to the main fuse closer to the driver fender any ideas where these wires run and what the other fuse is or where else to check for shorts...if i remove the fuses the short is gone but when i hook the battery up it still blows the main fuse
