Another common source of problems on the CF series TR6 is the power tap on 
the battery cable.  There are three wires that plug in there, two of which 
feed power to the car.  If one goes bad somethings stop working while other 
things continue to work.  Very strange symptoms until you analyze what is 
powered by which wire.
