my sisters owns the above said vehicle. its a clean car. 2 door. 2.5l 4 banger. blah blah
when she bought it the dude told her everything under the hood has been rebuilt within the last year. the tach says 205k miles. when she takes off from a start theres a little blue smoke. so it has not been rebuilt. thats not the issue.
the guy also said he just had it rewired. everything worked fine for 2 weeks and now her lights dont work. no brakes. no blinkers. no headlights. no hazzards. nothing. i checked all the bulbs there all good. fuzes are all good.
when she turns the left blinker on it has a blink blink pause for 3 seconds blink blink. repeat. the right blinker has nothing. and its only the left rear blinker that works. if she turns on her lights. she has them for like 5 minutes then they go away and come back as they please. if she turns on the headlights. the tail lights light up. i believe there called marker lights. so ppl can c u. but the brake lights still dont work.
i got under the hood today and found a blue ground wire that goes to the passenger headlight. i ground it to the battery cuz thats where it was zip tied off to. she turned on the head lights, 15 minutes later the passenger headlight was still on but no driver side head light. and still no blinkers. except the one. and same deal as before with brake lights.
this leads me to believe that each corner has a ground some place thats not ground. but the previous owner said its a closed circuit connection. idk hardly ANYTHING about electrical. but if it was closed circuit. one ground should ground them all correct? and if one wasnt working none of them should work...
help?
