| 1994 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS | TURN SIGNALS BEGAN TO WORK INTERMITTENTLY EVEN THOUGH I CLEANED SOCKETS AND REPLACED BULBS. THEN HEADLIGHTS FAILED AT 2AM 0N 11/15/99 AND I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER THAT AFTERNOON. THEY FOUND THE HARNESS SHORTING OUT INTERMITTENTLY AND THEY REPLACED IT. LOOKING AT THE PLUG-INS ONE OF THEM LOOKED DISCOLORED FROM THE SHORTING OUT. *AK |
