Car seemed to run fine and all lights, blinkers, brake lights, etc. worked =
when we bought the car a few months ago. Except it had no reverse; we knew=
that.
Swapped transmissions, car runs and drives fine, blinkers worked ok this af=
ternoon until on the way home I switched on the lights.
Smoke from under the dash, I think on the passenger side but not positive. =
Turned the lights off, turned the car off and popped the hood. No smoke in =
engine compartment. Back of light switch was hot but did not burn my finge=
r.
Started the car up and drove home. Blinkers don't work anymore but I haven=
't checked the fuses yet. The wipers work as does the horn.
So - clearly there is a problem, probably a short, probably under the dash.=
I have the wiring diagram from Advanceautowire.com. Clearly I have to d=
ive under the dashboard. Or could it be in the steering column assembly?
anyone have a check here first recommendation or a list of what to check fi=
rst?
Thanks! wiring doesn't scare me at all; I'm looking forward to solving thi=
s. hope you can help.
