Electrical problems

I was just wondering if anyone else has had any electrical problems with a Rodeo. I have a '98 and I am constantly blowing the windshield wiper fuse, the cigarette lighter does not work or when it does it blows whatever I have plugged into it. (Same with the Acc. Socket). The alarm, which I didn't even know I had, goes off randomly when I unlock the door. It will stop, however, when I put the key in the ignition and start the car. The back window will go down from the front button, but not up, and up until recently the radio made strange noises. I don't know how to describe them, but they were always the same and they weren't coming from the radio station. I just want to know if anyone else has seen these problems and what if anything you did about them.

I am also having a problem with the key getting stuck in the ignition. Any suggestions?

Re: Electrical problems

wiper. Hmm... maybe the wiper moter is on the way out?

Put some graphite in the ignition to help keep it lubed up.

Hope I helped some!

Did you buy this new? Sure sounds like a flood car. Anyway, you'll just have to inspect everything. Make sure that the cig. lighter socket is cleaned and has nothing in it. I'd unplug things to see if you can isolate it. Sometimes if something looses ground, it will search until it finds ground and can screw everything else up.
