I got an hour out today and the problems popped up, sending me back to the family spread outside Memphis. Apparently my headlight issues in the other thread are part of a bigger problem. There's now no power to about half of the positions in the fusebox. I lost constant 12v at the headlight switch and keyed power to the door locks, radio, and inside lights. I still have power to the windows, AC blower, the dash gauges, brake lights, turn signals, and the fuel selector fuse that my Gear Vendor power is running off of.
Here's the thing- It was working fine and the moment I lost power was when I released the parking brake. I checked everything at the back of the fuse box and see nothing amiss. Nothing obviously disconnected or melted anywhere, but the fuse for the headlights WAS blown. The fuse that I added before the new toggle switch I wired the headlights into yesterday is NOT blown.
Could this possibly be the ignition switch? I picked one up. I am going to go back through the wiring around the fuse box and see if I missed anything.
Also, is there any under hood fuses hiding from me that I don't know about? Is there a headlight relay?
