ok i have absolutly NO IDEA what the hell is goin on with my car but im so pissed off . ok so ....

First problem: my dummy lights, and my heater/fan/defrost unit are not working along with my whole console its kinda working but its like only showing half of what it should be (ex at 3000rpm its showing 1500) my gas gauge and temp gauge arent workin at all. so question is , is there a fuse that runs any of this i looked at my fuse box didnt see anything that stuck out. ive taken my whole console apart unhook everything plugged it back in still nothing and it all looks fine.

Now before all of this happend (1 hour ago) when i shut my car off all my dummy lights would stay on along with my heater/fan/defog unit, but i could hit my power window switch and it would all shut off, it was weird tho only the wiper switch would turn it off, open a door , turn on a light and it would all stay on keys out except for when i hit the power window switch?????????? like WTF. and when i shifted into 5th gear for some reason my whole console would go dead rpm,gas,temp,oil pressure and sometimes mainly at night with my headlights and running lights on, the would flash lighter/darker SO ANNOYING even if i had my door open my interior lights would flash as well and it would speed up when rpm increased.

so my question is to you PLZ PLZ PLZ gimme some help here im thinking maybe its my ALT a bad diod or something, i thought it at first when my dummy lights and **** would all stay on, i dissconnectd it and it would still stay so i thought ok ALT must be ok, so i go out and buy a new ignition switch install it and **** didnt change a god dam thing. SO What in gods name could be my GOD DAM PROBLEM :;

my main concern is my console i can deal with everything else for another week or so but im goin on a trip on friday so i want my **** to work.

ok, first, calm down, the club can help!

i'm assuming you checked all the fuse boxes from the kick panel under the driver side, the fuese box by the battery and the fuses/relays under the intake ducting by the front of the car?
