Weird Electrical probs 87 740 GLE
I made a 150 mile trip to a friends condo last night and when i started her up this morning and put on my lights i lost all my gauges, the it was showing that my high beams were on, and both my turn signals were on. When I flicked to high beams the indicator went out and my high beams came on. It was pretty cold this morning say 10 degrees but i have started her up in much colder conditions before with out a problem.
When i turned the lights back off gauges came back but i can still slightly see the turn signals faintly. I then just left my lights off and headed for home, about 45 min into the trip i tried the lights again and everything seemed normal. I started it up again later and same thing, my trip wasn't long so i didn't really have a chance to let it warm up. I haven't looked at fuses yet, but seeing that the problem cured it self after it warmed up i am guessing something else. Also i noticed that the light for the shifter is out, that happened this past weekend, but i didn't notice the problem till this morning. So what do you guys think? |

Under the hood, inside fenders, behind the headlights. Ground terminals. Clean, inspect, etc.
