Acessories do not seem to work
Acessories do not seem to work Ok, just finished my true dual set up with the LPPs and Sweet Thunder mufflers. Sounds GREAT!!!! I will have pictures and sound clips up as soon as I give her a bath and maybe a quick detail.
One question though, I cannot seem to make the accesories work, other than the radio. Think I might not have hooked something up right. The power steering and radio work, but the door locks do not work. I will have to check if the head lights work. I can't go outside and play with her right now because my kid is sleeping, and I can't leave her alone. Any ideas what I might have screwed up?

will do, I know he disconnected all the power because he was concerned about that. I will look into it. I might give you a call. Never thought of fuse, but it makes sense, since the radio works.
Ok... took another look at my car. Turns out my power locks DO work. But now the car won't start. not too worried about that because I could push start her, but I think I did not hook up the alternator correctly. Going to be a bit before I can run out there again, but I think it isn't hooked up right. Drove her 20 miles home, and she was good. But the battery is dead now. It is a new battery, and is supposed to be one of the best you can buy, so that probably isn't it...

BCM? Where do I ground? I will have to check. My mechanic took a look at it while he had it, but I don't think he looked too close to tell the truth. Did a great job on the exhaust though.

ok, alternator and battery are both good. Auto Zone tested them and they are both coming up good.
So here is a break down of what is going on. I have eliminated the following problems as a possibility:
1)starter: she fired up just fine at the shop on mulitpile occasions.
2) battery: holding a charge, and it is a newer battery (about 6 months old)
3) alternator: tested good.
Here are the possible problems:
1) Grounding, but I don't think so. It worked fine before I got back from the shop, why now?
2) Wires. I think I am just going to replace the regulator wire and the batt wire.
Any more ideas? The idea of the security light was an idea, but I have to get juice to her first. Please fill me in if you think I missed something...

any ideas? I just bought a replacement for the voltage regulator wire, but I have to marry the wires myself, so I am not sure if it will solve the problem if the other end of the wire is bad.
I hate my life. Something that was not fucked up before I start modding is ALWAYS fucked up after I mod something completly different. I would have LCAs by now if it weren't for random things going wrong. I need a sponsor.

VICTORY IS MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, I have no idea what I did, but I fixed her. Unhooked and tested. Put the air foil, granatelli elbow, and the intake sensor on, and hooked the battery and alternator back up, and she fired right up like nothing happened. I swear my car is cursed. Sound clips to come later tonight.

now my air bag light is coming on. :roll:
I am not too worried about it till I get the tune though. I am guessing that when I pulled all my fuses and put them back in, that maybe did it, or that my computer is just throwing a tantrum because the opti sensor, an O2 sensor, and anything having to do with smog are all deleted or temporarily not plugged in. Took her for a test drive last night, and I was doing 110 before I really noticed it. oops.
"remember children: once you are going 120MPH, you are considered a low flying aircraft and cops are not allowed to chase you..."
