I'm working here with my neighbor and we are trying to track down a likely electrical problem.
I am willing to send cash,gift card, charitable donation to someone that can help me locate the problem.
Problem began last night when trying to find a ground on the passenger side fusebox for a gauge. Nothing is installed yet and I know the problem came from the attempted install. Worked on vent locations, passenger side fusebox, and under battery holder.
In the pass side fusebox, the Tyco electronics large tab came loose while the car still had power. This was when I opened the kickpanel door, I'm not implying this is the problem, but it may have led to it. Pulled most of the mini fuses in the engine compartment and the pass side fusebox. I could not find any burned out.
Car Will
Lights will flash when I hit the lock or unlock, but will not pop the lock, horn works on multiple keypad lock hits, dome light works, trunk lights work, trunk key opens, adjusting windows go up, front and rear lights work
Car will not: have any key on power, no key chime, no more blinking antitheft light, can't lock or unlock doors by keypad or door button, no window switch power. Fog lights won't come on, blinkers won't work(did last night), no radio power.
I was having an issue last night with interference noise that sounded like it was coming from the cluster, but j was able to have accessory power and everything was okay. I was trying to find a source of the interference but I couldn't, a faint clicking sound from the cluster with key on acc, even for a good 10 sec. plus after removing the key. Over the period of last night until today a lot more things quit working.
Battery is charged.
Thanks and opinions or thoughts to track down the problem will be appreciated.
