short story:
Need to trace out the "tail" (parker light) circuit as it had a short. Suspect more burnt wiring is within the loom. Auto electrician did some very weird thing to it and it's very stuffed up. Can't go back to him as I moved interstate.
Long story:
Just the day before I have to move interstate, the parker lights got stuck on. engine off and all lights off but the parker light (and dash) stays on. I didn't have time to actually go diagnose the problem so I took the car to the auto electrician to sort it out. It turned out that there's a short in the parker circuit. I was told that the 'tail' fuse was blown and fused back together and overloaded the wires hence creating a short.
The auto electrician took the whole day tracing wires back to the fuse box to 'repair burnt wiring'. The parker short circuit is fixed after a whole day worth of labour ($$$$).
Now, I face a more complicated problem. When I have my headlights on and go on boost, the whole instrument cluster goes funny. RPM goes haywired, blinker lights flashes and the cluster light dims out. WTF!?
I'm suspecting the PIM boost light on the cluster is shorted with other wires when I turn on the lights.
It works all fine without the lights on.
Next is the boost gauge, after I turn my lights to on then off, it stays on!? Until I turn the engine off... seriously!?
Another is that cluster light dimmer, it is disconnected... I remember that if you disconnect the dimmer, the cluster lights won't turn on at all, something funny going on here too...
I'm so pissed off at the trashy job they did...
