So I was measuring the voltage in the map light area (to find a hot wire for my radar detector) and then my map lights go out, I search high and low for a blown fuse but no dice. Now my remote entry, radio, inside lights (minus tach and spedo unit), or the computer that tells you mpg and outside temp, but my clock works.

Any ideas?

Thanks

It deffinately sounds like something got shorted out did you just inspect the fuses by eye or use a volt meter or test light?

I just inspected by eye.

Did you check the fuse block in the engine bay?

Yep and no luck there.

 

Also my dash doesn't tell me that my doors are open, the door side lights aren't working either, and my clock is gone now :spin:

Just go through and check those fuses with a volt meter, also my last car had what was called a main relay which alot of components relied on. Im not sure if they leggy's have them but if they do I would check that as well.

Thanks, I just looked for the main relay and found it but it looks damn near impossible to remove without breaking some plastic around it. It's going in to the shop on monday we'll see what they say.
