Hi Max,
Just finished testing the fuses - I disconnected the Neg Cable
Connector - Then with the Test Light connected between the Neg Cable and
Neg Post - I found the light stayed Lit the whole time except when I got
to #9. I pulled the top of the Fuse Holder away from the top of each
fuse and there was no change in the way the light acted except when I
got to #9. The Light went out when I removed the fuse and then when I
put the fuse back the light came back on. I then pulled it again.
BTW, I remembered that when I R&R'd the AC Evap. I lost the power wire
that makes the antenna go up/down when the radio is turned on - it
disappeared into the area under/behind the console and after 2 days of
searching I gave up and found another place to get 12v when the key
turned on. I ended up tying into the light in the glove box for power
to raise/lower the antenna. Maybe that wire came in contact with the
chassis?
But the good thing is, I am beginning to understand how to test, how the
test work and what they tell me - Thanks to you, Peter and Craig. I
still have a long way to go before I can operate by myself, but at least
I understand more about what I'm doing.
I'm still confused by Peter's comment about testing and the "Hot Side of
the Fuse". I thought both sides were hot when energized? But then I
remembered what you said about the Switches and their role in my Test
Procedure - Is this right? One side of the Fuse Holder is Hot, and when
the switch is switched on the circuit is completed? Hmmm,... No, I
guess both sides of the fuse holder could be either hot or negative
depending on the design? Right?
Oh well, as long as the lights come on when I flip the switch. ;-)
Anyway. here's the list of associated things on circuit #9:
Diagnostic Term. # 6
Hazard Warning Light
Clock
Front Roof Light
Radio
Vanity Mirror Light
Relay Comfort Circuitry Term 86.
I have no idea what Term 6 and 86 do or where they are located but I
doubt either would have a short.
I'll start troubleshooting the things on this circuit.
Comments anyone?
