i got two problems... i was in my car messing with my radio and i heard some something that sounded like a fuse blew. kind of a faint click
now my interior lights wont come on and my warning chimes wont come on(the ones when you leave your key or leave your lights on). i looked at my fuses and they are fine. is there maybe something hidden that has blown? Second problem is hesitant acceleration. Like when I'm starting from rest the engine will stuuter for like 2 seconds and then when i am at constant speed its ok. I would really appreciate any help. You all have been so helpful thus far.

Interior lights and such are on the accessory fuse labeled "ACC" in the fuse block. as for your hesitation, no clue.

The hesitation is.. gotta do something with your fuel and fire. Run your car for codes, the problem MIGHT BE your Ignition Control Module, im 95% sure, what you CAN do though to make sure its working correctly is take it out take it to Autozone and have them test it to see if it's working for free, so do that before buying.

hesitation sounds like a fuel delivery problem, or bad ignition timing.

i went tried your solution geno, but one problem... there's nothing in the fuse block for acc. There is just an empty slot. And the thing is... there never was anything there since i bought the car

well its seems as thought the slot doesn't use the typical 2 prong fuse. It has only one slot. according to my fuse diagram, the BATT slot has a similar opening. It has a weird, small plug thing in it. kinda looks like a really small hamburger flipper with a wire coming out

........... thats weird, ive never seen that in a GM application before, plenty of aftermarket but never factory. guess you learn something new every day.

yeah the whole fuse block is screwed up. I think only like two fuses are the right size. im too scared to change them out because theyve been working. I dont want my car to blow up or anything. Whoever was the last owner was a serious electrician because I have wires that connect fuses together and stuff.

that dosnt mean he was an electrician, it means he thought he was, which could be a very bad thing. tred softly.

Tread softly? The hell you talking about? :lol: Just reminded me of Rush Hour 2..gotta see that again.

lol im talking about dealing with modified wiring, sometimes it needs a gentle touch, you can make problems worse. or cause a fire. so its just a good idea to take things slowly and careful is all.

I know what it means.. I just wanted to say what I said because of the movie and Chris Tucker's funny expression when he said it.
