Ok guys. Before I start I'm very sorry for the lengthy post but I want to be as detailed as possible
I'm completely stumped.
I bought a 93 s13 se hatch.. I'm in the middle of restoring it. so I pulled the dash, heater core assembly, blower motor, ac evap box, brake, clutch, and gas pedal. Basically everything from the firewall so I could clean off some surface rust and make sure I will have ac and heat.
I noticed I had a few wires broken on a plug by the blower motor, at the CD player plug. And a few wires rubbed on the bundle of wires running along the driver side rocker. That I still need to fix..
So long story short. I change the evap core and expansion valve. Clean the heater core and blower motor. And re foamed everything so it seals. After I put the dash support bar back in the car I wanted to make sure everything worked,
When I cleaned the fuse box due to corrosion. I replaced all the fuses with the led fuses that glow when they pop( in case of a short I know where it came from)
So I plug the blower motor in and threw a battery in to make sure it all works. As soon as I put the Battery in I heard the 'dinger' ding once and it popped the 10 amp room lamp fuse. So I put in a 15 amp. And it popped. When I went to a 25 amp and it didn't pop. So for shits and giggles I put a 10 a,p back in and it hasn't popped yet.... :naw:
But nothing, absolutely nothing in the interior works.. No ac controls, dash lights, seat belts, windows, locks, dome lights. Nothing,.... I checked all the wires and only found the couple rubbed wires so I separated them from the rest so they don't touch. But still nothing.
But I have headlights, and the pop ups work. And something else weird is if I put the battery in the windshield wipers go up and down once. That's it, only once.
Please, please, please, someone help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm completely dumbfounded,
OH!!! also when I take he key out the ' dinger' keeps dinging..
