87-7 and the metering(the one for the gauges) fuse keeps frying out, haven't took the Voltmeter to it yet, just curious if anone has had this problem too... Not to metion I had to put a new batt. ground cable, put in a stereo with amp, and new alt...

 

lol duude I know how you feel, I had the same exact problem. For me it turned out to be some wires for the ATX dangling and touching a grounded area since the car was converted from auto to manual. Look at the wiring diagram (ask Icemark if you have to) and just work your way through it.

 

Sorry, but the Meter fuse really gets around other than the gauges. I'd make suspect the audio changes that you made recently. Look for a Black wire with a Yellow stripe on it.

Meter fuse does the combination meter, cruise control, backup lights, AAS, cooling fan, theft protection, warning and digital clock, key cylinder lights, seat belt warning buzzer, door locks and stuff in general.

See if you did something PECULIAR with a black/yellow wire and then download the series four wiring schematics and view them.

 

thanks for looking out, isn't there wiring diagrams on here somewhere?? I connect some stuff from under the hood the other day so hopefully thats it, but with my luck I'll be back...

 

you got a short to power somewhere.

 

How is the problem going? I'm currently dealing with this problem. The guy that had the car before me did some audio work, but I haven't had problems up until about 1 month ago. (I've owned the car for about 4 months.) I'm going to look over some wiring diagrams tomorrow and try to figure this out.

 

don't bump. Bumps are not allowed here in the 2nd gen RX-7 technical section and will be deleted when found. Furthermore bumps make you look like a spoiled child that thinks your question is more important than any of the 20000 other members.



So when you got the car, the meter fuse was blown, or you have done something recently and now the fuse blows???

The most common is that a clutch job was done, and the reverse light wires got ripped.
