As you can see from my last post, I am suspecting that white/purple wire to be a problem. I will get an ohm meter and test out the wire you are speaking about also. Hopefully that helps. Thanks, and I will let you know what happens. Joel ps. If it is that wire, how hard was it to replace? Do I need to lift up the car? --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxx, "BRUCE BENSON" <delornut@xxxx> wrote: > Quite a few years ago I had a friend with a problem very similar to yours. > First it was just blown fuses, with the frequency of the fuse failures > increasing as the miles built up on the car.
