1988 RX7

well my lights are all whack. when i first got it, all the lights that should come on when you turn the parking lights on dont come on. the car had wires dangling everywhere and i ripped most of em out. after that the parking lights came on... but never turned offf unless i disconnected the battery. does anyone know a (pray to god) simple way of fixing this all together? or of a good place that will fix it. i just cant think of a place that would do so. also, im planning on installing a viper alarm at best buy or something... do you think they can fix it while installing it?? thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help rolandofeld. Jeez some people would rather dis than assist... well i dont believe you shouldve "ripped out" your unknown dangling wires. Its always best to figure out what it is you're removing before you go and do it.

There are relatively easy to read wiring diagrams in the FSM (link to an online version is in the FAQ sticky in this forum). My suggestion is to figure out WHAT wires you need to run where, and make sure they get where they need to be. Check and make sure all of your grounds a solidly grounded. You might want to check your lighting switch too

when you ripped out the wires, you shorted a constant to the parking lights... probably at the back of the radio

hmm... im pretty sure most of if not all of the wires were to some stereo. a lot of em were speaker wires. but there is no stereo in it at the time. i think icemark is right. thanks for the help fusion. im gonna try to go find those diagrams. also... how would i fix that shortage?

The red/black is probably resting against the blue/white in the radio hole. Make it so they can not touch

i dont think i was "dissing" just pointing out that he needed to find his problem/question. but your right, it was rude. my apologies. good luck.
