I recently installed new dash speakers and soon later i began to have problems...the gas guage sits on empty, but shoots up to full when i press the brake pedal. Also, the turn signals do not work unless the brake pedal is pushed in or the headlights are turned out, and even then the turn signals only "glow" , they dont flash.....Any ideas??? None of the fuses are blown and the hazard switch works fine

Hello E16!!!


It has obviously been a few days since you posted your problem, and even longer since I checked the forum.

Has it been resolved?


I think you may have two problems the first being a bad fusible link, it's probably got a few strands still intact so it still has voltage passing through it but not enough amperage. The second part is you may have a broken ground. Check the fusible links first and we can go from there.
