Re: Fix My Car!!!!!

Do you really have to hit shift When You Type Each Word?... damn.

You say you checked your fuses, but have you checked the fuse block itself? Obviously, it's the courtesy lamp fuse that would have a problem here, but you should check the circuit on the fuse itself... find the courtesy fuse, get a circuit tester, ground one side, and touch the other side to the metal contacts on the fuse... one at a time, obviously.

If you get a light, then there is power, and the problem is after the fuse block... if you don't get light, the problem is before the fuse block, b/c the fuse block isn't getting any power on that circuit... which could mean a broken/shorted wire.

Considering that it's a theft recovery, I'd guess someone tore that wire trying to use it for a quick hotwire.
