Q3131A

Gonna give this another try. This happened back in 2008 but car has been stored for the most time since. I know I've only put 113 miles on since 2011. Have some time so trying to fix everything.

Replaced the battery in 2008. Dropped a tool and shorted positive post to ground. Split second.

Radio, power door locks, key fob, power seats, courtesy lights and maybe others don't work.

I replaced BCM with a brand new BCM and brand new main positive wire. Other small things over the years. BCM clicks and nothing works.

Any ideas. I have a list of things to do to car and this electrical problem is right at the top.

Fuse and fusible links.

There are electrical schematics that you can use for fee if you register on Autozone's web site.

Was a fusible link.

The local dealership has first come, first serve in service department on Saturday so next morning I was there half an hour early. Already half a dozen idiots ahead of me in line to pay over $100 for oil change and tire rotation.

Last time I took a car in for diagnosis it was $50. Long time ago. It's now $100. Let them find problem. If they fix it the diagnosis fee goes toward the fix.

Anyway he said they had 2 hours labor finding it but would only charge me 1 hour, the $100. Link was $5 so no brainer. $105 and my 8 year problem is fixed.

Just wanted to give update.

Thanks for posting back.

This is only the second time I've heard of a fusable link blowing. The other time it was a direct short to the battery.
