Bad car part 2; The finale

As most of you know, I'v had some cluster issues with my wife's 7. After tearing everything that I could find apart, replacing just about every electrical piece there is, and almost completely re-wiring the engine bay, I finally found the issue. I find it absolutely amazing, the havoc that can be wreaked by a simple 15amp meter back fuse missing. Also I have to thank the codeblue's for being here to help my wife call me a DUMBASS when I fixed this.

I checked all the fuses that were present......... I have no idea where the meter back fuse went to. But I do know, it's nowhere in the car. But, my bad for not noticing a fuse missing.

So will we see a part 3 to this story...

Thats ok Brian the look on your face after putting the fuse in and everything working was "Priceless". Of course I won't call you a Dumbass....theres still issues so guess it was worth pulling it apart.

Cool for a dumb *** anyway. Although, I don't feel too bad, because a lot of other people have spent a decent amount of time on it too, and none of them noticed either. You all know who you are. Hell, one guy was even all balled up under the dash looking, and he didn't see it either. So I guess I'm still the CHAMP, cause I fixed it. *pats self on back, since no one else will.*

My god, I left out one damned "L" ! That is just fine and dandy. I really don't mind a correction, but now people are becoming ******** about it. So far I have seer : "teh" "Pr0n" "evar" and to tell you the truth, I am surprised that owned was not spelled " 0wN3D"

Now on to more post whoring...
