Re: dash lights just stopped working yesterday

So I found a brand new switch (wiper/lights) and installed it. But it did not fix my electrical problem, still no dash lights and wiper fuse still blowing. its a nice switch though, coast me $220 and its a left hand type.

Re: coolant leek just found

Its not coolant dripping, its diesel, Guess I had some coolant on the ground for some reason and assumed without smelling what was dripping at the time. so I guess I need a new seal.

Re: Wiper 15a fuse dies when turning key to accessory positi

I still cant find the short, I tried puling the plug on both wiper motors, as well I took apart the switch to see if it was there, no luck. So Im running a wire direct to the wiper motor from the battery (with a 15a fuse and switch) works for now. Any good ideas out there? Thanks

Thanks for the help, I will check to see if I can access the wires through the glove box, and pull the plug on the motor.
My friend will be coming by tomorrow with an ohm meter, we will tinker around. Thanks again
