Ok guys, now its come time to tackle my favorite sort of issues, electrical *sarcasm* on rusty 2.0 (87 ranger)
1- The wipers are stuck in the up position. When i flick the wiper switch lever i can hear a clicking noise, but nothing moves. The truck has sat for an unknown amount of time, is it possible the linkage has stuck? Or is it more likely the motor?
2- I have one operational turn signal (front left), but no hazards and no brake lights. When you hit the signal or brake pedal the tail/markers stay on, so, if you had that many bad bulbs would it not have the light cut out like normal when one blows? Or is it more likely in the signal switch and/or brake light switch? The highbeams work, so i dont *think* its the switch.
3- The radio dont work. Its the factory radio, the lights come on with the headlights, but no display, no sound, nothing.
4- The door chime sounds more like a faint old school police siren then the more pleasent (but equally annoying) ding. Any ideas?
