Nope. Heater blower does not work, and I am sure I tested that after the dash was on because I used the switch on the outside of the dash to do it. > If so, the load reduction relay and its drive from the X terminal of the > ignition switch is good. > I pre-emptively replaced the ignition switch with a new one when I was putting the dash back on. I know that new does not equal good, and also that you should suspect the part you put on last, first. How can I test if power is coming off that terminal? Also where is that load reduction relay, and how would I check it? > > > Does washer pump work? If so then you've eliminated fuse S10 as a problem. > If S10 is the tenth fuse starting from the driver's door, the fuse looks ok. However, with the key on, there is no power on either end of the fuse. > > Is the wiper switch connector plugged in all the way on the column? > Which one is that? I did find one that was not all the way in. I plugged that one (the square-cross-sectioned black one on the driver's side) all the way in and it made no difference. Thanks for all your suggestions. mike > > Yours, > David > > >
