What would cause this? Besides the brake light and the door light, those are the only ones on.

Did they ever work. Is the plug on the rear of the alternator unplugged. Locate the Yellow/Blue wire in the largest CPU plug and ground this wire. Then w/key to on see if the idiot lights come on.

yea they did. Recently we had a big flash flood and my car got flooded with water. I fried my n338 ecu. Got a n332 now and it's been running funny ever since. In all gears the car jerks real bad. I can't get on it either

N338 is for a vert and N332 is for a S4 turbo so they shouldn't be compatible.

I have an 88 vert. That n338 is universal for s4 turbo or n/a. The n332 is the only s4 ecu I had laying around. It would atleast let me turn my car on, but would it make my car drive shitty the way it is? I believe their should be no water left in my motor. I did an oil change and got new spark plugs..

The ECU you're using is expecting turbo input information wise and it's getting NA.

link to a video I made while driving my car I tried to get on it as much as I could thru first and second but as soon as I got to 3k it's like it jerked/ loss of power soo much that I jerked forward in my seat. That squeaky sound on the inside of my car is my clutch pedal lol.
