Anyone have problems with !wire mod? Yesterday, I installed my 2 pulleys and did the wire mod. After installing the pullies, the car wouldnt start due to me letting the battery drain. The car finally starts and everything is good. I then continue on with the wire mod, no cutting involved, just unplug everything and plug it back in. I also installed my new painted healights and tried to start the car and nothing. The headlights dont seem to work. When I even turn the key now, both my tailights signals and my high beam lights are on, on the dash. When I push the on the horn, both turn signal lights come on, on the dash. I did not mess with any fuses yesterday or anything. I have checked them and they all seem fine. I am clueless as to what the problem could be.....
I've had no problem. I just did one step by step. I'm going to have a full !wire kit available complete with every tool or item needed. It even has Velcro strips and zip ties. Fully detailed color instructions.
It's done, just waiting on a few other items for sale.

The wire mod relocates the wiring harness that runs on top of the passenger side fender to the area between the plastic inner fender and sheet metal.
There's a write up for it at the top of this forum, but my kit has every one of the tools/items needed plus more detailed instructions. The price covers my cost and adds $10 for my time & profit. $45 shipped total. I'll post a pic soon of the total kit.

try unplugging the connectors, and re attatching them above the shock tower like stock. if thats really the only thing that you did, then your problem should be located in that area. possibly water intrusion on the plug? did you wash your car or engine bay? also try disconnecting the batt and re-connecting. sometimes low voltage can reak havoc on a cars electrical system.

the car has not seen any water in months. i've disconnected the battery a few times and tried that...now the battery is dead in the garage and I need to go get a charger, but I really don't think that the battery is the issue....we shall see...

I think its your battery. There is no way to mess up the !wire mod unless you just simply didn't plug one of the connectors back in. Its not like you can plug any of them into the wrong opposite connector as they are all different and unique. GEt a charged battery back in and I'll bet you it will be fine.

i just bought a battery charger from sears and charged the battery. the car now starts, but the drivers side turn signal is not blinking. I had this issue when before. Since i just installed a new rear panel and export tailights, so i may have something too tight..
