Ok i hooked up neons to my fuse box on the passenger side of my 98' malibu. Well during the processes i crossed my power wires and fired it. Well i replaced the wire and no power, i tried a buncha diff slots and no power. My stereo doesnt have power, no intereor lights working. All the other stuff works head lights hazards wipers, etc... I tried to disconnect the negative to the battery hoping to restart the the power, well all that did was reset the trip odometer. HELP PLEASE if you can. Thanks

I think you might want to check the relay under the hood that powers that fuse panel on that side of your car. there are fuses and relays that give power to that. e-mail me if you dont have a haynes manual and I think I can help you. jody_misch@hotmail.com

yup, thanks. I didnt find the right fuse for a while, but i did blow out one of those big fuses. Everything is workin good again. thanks for the input

Hey, take this tip...

The next time you do or attempt anything electrical in any car.. disconnect the battery first. No matter how small the job. This will eliminate the error of crossing hot wires and shorting things out.

good luck next time.

luckily you just blew the main fuze, next time, who knows... fry computer??? woops
