Please help.
I just got a 1992 coupe/auto(swaping to manual soon).
The previouse owner had a light fenderbender.
This weekend I swaped out the frunt bumper and headlight frames
Got everything back together.
Dumb admission- put the batery in oposite.
Now the engine starts and the headlights illuminate.
But the brake lights and all indicators don't light up
The headlights will not flip.
Auto windows and interior lights are out.
The ignition swaitch will not release the Key.

I think that it is an (a/c wild issue) as all the accasories that are not criticle work.
So what happened?
Did I fry some feuses or something?
please help.
Thanks.

Holy fuck you spell like a tree stump.

You blew one or more of the fusible links. Replace as required.

Probably. Did you even check them or do you just expect us to know exactly what's wrong with your car by some means that only sci-fi could explain?

due to cosmic forces...and the gravatational pull that jupiter is inflicting on earth, i would say that has impacted a positive/negative polatiry switch on the battery causing fuses to blow......

Flameahollics. LOL. a guy gets a nice little black coupe and everyone hates.

The temp dropped to 30 when the sun set, so I had to call it a day.
I had a feeling that, that is what happened.
I will check them this afternoon.

So I checked the fuses under the dash.
They are all good.
Is there a master fuse for:
Indicators
Brake lights
A/C
Radio
Interior lights
Window wipers
Window switches

It drives and the headlights turn on. that is it.

projectRDM · 01-16-2009, 09:19 AM

Fusible links are under the hood. Check all of those too. Sounds like you blew one one or more of the 30A ones.

The Saint · 01-17-2009, 04:07 AM

Found IT!!
A foot back from the batery is t black relay box.
In the back is a 75A fuse.

swaped it out. Rolling!
I am going to get a few of these as back up.

I looked threw the archived threads and did not find a match.
Since it IS honestly a stupid, BUT COMMON, mistake
It should be placed there.

Im having a similar problem except when I replace the fuse. It blows again. This is the Alternator fuse if im not mistaken.

This began as a friend of mine removed my alternator in order to test it on his own car. I assume that when he put it back he must have plugged something wrong. As difficult as that may seem it is the only conclusion I give so can anyone be kind enough to describe how their alternator is wired up. There are 3 lines... Where do they go to.

1 is obvioius it has the plug, the other 2 are screwed on with nuts. Where to? thanks
