Found my electrical problem (idiot moment)

so having trouble with electrical system (headlights and break lights dropping voltage.) So I decided why not check my grounds (after 1 year of having my rx7) so I check the first ground and who would of guessed... THE ******* GROUND WASNT EVEN GROUNDED TO THE CAR!!! the wire was just hanging there without it even on the screw...

so i grounded that wire, and who would have guessed, it fixed all my problems

well now i feel stupid, especially after everyone told me to check my grounds.

Since I'm not one of the people who told you to check your grounds I don't get to say I told you so, so instead I'll chime in with something constructive: Glad to hear you got it fixed, and thanks for sharing! Perhaps your oversight will help somebody else in the future
