[Mk2] [Turbo] No power to HVAC / Power Steering / Tach / Power Windows

Post by nathan.z »

Updated Thread Title*

Hey folks,

Problem solved - Water from the recent storms had got in the car and filled the cubby behind the drivers seat. Inside is a 'JDM' inverter that the original owner wired in. This had short circuit causing the the fuse to blow.

Today I set in motion & removed the unit and the related dodgy wiring. Had to rejig the after market boost gauge wiring as it was originally patched into the inverter which was patched into the cigarette lighter.

New issue - Heater / Cooler matrix / Rev counter / Temperature Gauge / Power Steering / Power Windows have all stopped working. The rats nest of after market wiring removed & rejigging the boost gauge power must had caused this. If anyone has any pointers for me to start looking let me know! [Rolling Eyes]

All fixed, turns out I had a bad fuse that wasn't visibly faulty. Weird eh? :roll: I think my speedo capacitors are on the way out as that took 15 mins to burst into life & it's been a bit temperamental.
