47601, I need HELP QUICK!!!!
Posted by gilee_8, May-14-03 09:10 PM
Sup guys....This is very bad...
I just got a 96 Eclipse and I been working on it for 3 days now.
Everything is great....except 2 things.
1) All interior lights (back lights for control, gauges..etc) are all off.
2) The whole entire driver side door has no power (not sure about if no power or what.. but power window, mirror, and lock doesn't work)

I really have to fix them. Since I can't even see how fast I was going at nite.

I did checked all the fuse in the car and under the hood, and no fuse are blown. Does any of you guys had this problem before?

Let me tell you some situation: My CD player works, AC works, power window for the passenger side works, power lock for only passager side works. Windows for pass won't work since the driver's side doesn't work at all. It has the sunroof, but the whole control unit was gone, so I can't try to operate it.

That's all... Please give input AS SOON AS YOU GUYS CAN!!
Thanks guys. Any input is greatly apprecaited!!
Thanks.

Double check your fuse. Did you pull each one out?? I remember similar thing happened to me too. I went through the whole fuse (under hood/inside) and found one that was dead. double checking wont hert. Don't ignore one because its for power steering or soemthing. Just check them all

i know you said you checked all fuses, but double check the taillamp fuse. When that blows you lose gauge lighting...

Thanks guys.. I just went out again. This is my third time checking the fuse. None of them are out. Is there any other way I can or any other way there are something wrong for ALL the lights to be out? not just the gauge lights.

And for the other problem... the driver side door seems to have NO POWER. Everything Electronic on the driver side doesn't work... Thanks again man!

When I got the car..it's like that.
At first...the CD player don't even have power...and also when the doors open.. no lights goes on. But after I checked the fuses.... two of them are fucked up... So I changed them and now they works. But the interior lights (indicators) and driver side door are still messed up.

Thanks

Check your fuses. Not just by eye. Check with a multimeter. When you look at a fuse as it sits in it's space, see how there are 2 small bare slits of metal? See if there is continuity between them. This is the best way to test a fuse, and you can do it quickly, as you don't need to take the fuses out to check them.
