my car has issues

ok i got the damn car started after the motor flooded...and its running good...the only problem is that the blinkers dont work...and my odometer doesnt work...there's no lights in it....the headlights turn on, and the speedometer works fine....oh yah when i turn on the headlights my radar detector turn off and then back on...weird things happening to my car anyone got any ideas?

before when i first turned it on after like 2 weeks...the hold button was flashing and it wouldnt boost...then i reset the ecu and those problems went away...

is it possible that when i pulled the main EGI it messed some stuff up?


any help would be great please

seems like a short or something is being grounded. get a probe and test your fuses and wires,

stop bumping your damn thread... if people knew what the issue was they would answer. just because your rx7 has issues doesnt means its special and you need to bump your thread ever 2 hours... everyday a handful of people post problems they are having with their fd, why don't you try a search in here before you bump it one more time.

btw, i've been to dallas, it sucks.

well ur bulbs might be burned out i'd check that if it clicks but it doesn't light up. the other things sound like grounded wires. i had a friend that drove around with no lights that worked on the left side of his car everyother light worked. and it was a grounded wire but u couldn't keep a fuse in it so u need to check all of ur fuses if they do or don't look burnt out.

Look in section Z of the service manual. Check for shorts. Also check your battery.
