what I learned today....
never... EVER... mess with any aftermarket wiring...
my fogs have never worked, and even though Im not planning on ever using them, I like to know why something isnt working. so I took them off today to see if the bulbs were burnt.
they arent, actually they look brand new
however, I did find they werent actually plugged in. but the person who owned the car before me had spliced some wire between the foglamp feed and the turn signal feed (see pics below). but I havent a clue as to why, since the wire only splices between those to locations.
however, when I plugged in my fogs and tried to turn them on, still nothing. no big deal as my covers are almost done and I wont be using them anyways, right ?
wrong...
now, my dash lights arent working, nor are my tail lights !
brake lights work fine, and my tails do come on for about 20 secs when I activate the alarm, but they dont come on with the switch...
turn signals and front parking lights work, headlamps work (except 1 hi-beam, with a new bulb in it as well...)
so I started today with 1 hi-beam not working and my fogs not working, and now I also dont have gauge lights or tail lights....
any ideas ?
