When i turn on my car the radio lights will not come on. My speedo and tach don't move, I can't turn on my wipers, my blinkers will come on but the dash indicators don't. my lights automatically turn on and wont turn off unless i turn the car off.

over the weekend i did install a pop charger (my first mod) and the car sat out in some freezing rain.

is this just a strange elec problem or could there be something i did that made this happen?

 

fuses?

 

i didn't touch them if thats what you are asking.

 

That is weird. I think he was referring to if you checked all of them.

 

Weird, the only thing I can think of is a fuse. Have you checked them all?

 

I haven't checked them yet. Probably what it is though. I was more worried it somehow had to do with me Popcharger installation and therefore wouldn't be covered by my warranty.

 

Maybe a good idea to check things out before starting a post about it. BTW, popcharger and electrical system are totally unrelated.

 

Get a better Grounding Kit... stock kits on the Z sucks booty

 

thanks. i knew that, but the fact that it happened the next morning after i installed it made me nervous. never modded a car before, who knows what weird crap can happen.

 

It's just coincidence that it happen after the PC install. If you didn't mess with any electrical stuff under the dash it's most likely just a fuse.

I know with the 2000+ Toyota Celica if you remove one of the two bulbs for the a/c controls it causes problems with the dash lights and the dimmer quits working. People would remove these to do a light bar color conversion.
