Ok, I know I've seen the question before, but the search option seems to be catty-wampus, so I'm going to ask forgiveness for repeating it.
I have a 1989 240 DL estate with an aftermarket AM/FM/CD. I had been having intermittant problems with the driver's side switch not always engaging the light, but a wiggle would make it work. On to what is now going on-
I was driving on a residential street, rolled over a speed bump, and- the radio went dead, the chime I used to get when the door opens went off (a friend has disconnected the chime, thank God, the dome light does not work, and the power locks do not work.
When I went to replace fuse eight, it sparked. I realize I probably casued a short with the jarring of going over the speedbump.
So far, I have checked:
Domelight ( removed and looked at wires that were visible)
Area behind the stereo (loked for wires that may have been sliced)
Door switch on drivers side (looked for anything that looked wrong.)
I am determined to figure this out. 1) I am cheap. 2) My wife is smug about her 2003 Camry working well, and teasing me about my stubborn affeection for the brick. 3) It's getting personal. ;)
Any tips, suggestions, or ideas welcome. I promise to post what does (and doesn't) work.
Best regards,
Mikojay
