    Help Electrical Gurus

    Thanks for the help! I will check it out this weekend. I hope this is the problem, I wasn't crazy about driving around with a short somewhere! I remember how I knew the car was Canadian. The owner's manual is in French! Todd

    Help Electrical Gurus

    I can't remember right now how I know but I do believe the car is from Canada. That would explain a lot. I didn't think any of these cars came with DRL's. Can I remove the module if this is the case? If so any idea where it would be located? Thanks again for the help

    Help Electrical Gurus

    2000 GT Coupe. They flicker on and off rapidly almost like the lights on a cop car. My first thought was the kid that owned it before me installed some sort of flasher but I am sure I would have noticed it before this summer. I have had the car about a year and a half. The dealership did...

    Help Electrical Gurus

    I am having a very strange problem with my headlights. With the car running and the ebrake off the headlights flicker on and off. As soon as I set the ebrake they shut off completely. I dug into the dash yesterday to see if maybe there was something obvious but could find nothing. I unhooked...

    Strange Electrical Problem

    I have a 2000 GT. This one has me baffled. I pulled into my driveway the other day and when I pulled up close to the fence where I park I noticed my headlights seemed to be on. I checked the headlight switch and it was off but when I turn it on it got a little brighter. I shut them off and...

    some idiot hit my car (ins. question)

    I am an insurance agent in VT so I am not familiar with NJ laws. If your car was hit in a parking lot it should definitely be covered by uninsured motorist and therefore not subject to the 500 dollar deductable (VT has a statewide 150 deductable on UM property damage, not sure about NJ). Here...

    Yet another tire question

    I actually ended up driving all over town for quite a while (small town!). I only found one shop in town that had the size I needed. It turned out the tire they had in stock was the BFG KDWS so I ended up buying two of those for the rear. $330 mounted and balanced.

    Yet another tire question

    I ran over something in the road yesterday that sliced one of my tires. The tires were about on their last leg anyway. I am planning on getting different rims (I have stock 17X8) and probably some BFG KDW's next summer but now I need to get a couple of tires for the rear to get me through the...

    alpine with stock 460 amps wow!

    From the research I have done the 70-5510 is for the 2000 Mustang. They also do not list it on the Metra website but I did find it at another online retailer. The 2001 Mustangs and up use a different harness. I emailed Metra and they actually responded in less than half an hour.

    alpine with stock 460 amps wow!

    Glad to hear this. I am putting my Alpine 7894 in tonight with the same harness. Just curious what did you use for crossover settings on the Alpine Deck?

    Will Metra 70-5519 work on a 2000?

    Thanks I actually did email Metra and they got right back to me. The adapter I needed if anyone else is looking is the 70-5510. This adapter is not on the Metra website but I did find it at "thezeb.com"

    Will Metra 70-5519 work on a 2000?

    I have searched this forum and found the Metra 70-5519 adapter for putting an aftermarket HU in a 2001 with a Mach 460. Does anyone know if this adapter will also work with a 2000 with the Mach 460?

    Need Help Please Strange Problem

    definitely not the battery. Car cranks fine it just won't start. It has plenty of juice. Guess I make a call to the dealership tomorrow. I am glad I purchased the Premium Care Warranty. Guess I will see just how good it is! Thanks for the help all! :shrug: Todd

    Need Help Please Strange Problem

    The plot thickens. Turn the key to accessory and hit the brake or power window button and all the interior lights go out and the fog lights come on! Any electrical wizards on here????

    Need Help Please Strange Problem

    I am in the process of doing that right now. It is not just the brake that does this, if I turn on the headlights none of the lights on the interior work including the dash lights. If I hit the power window switch everything goes out. My windows are down and they won't go up. Thanks for...

    Need Help Please Strange Problem

    no the odometer just goes out completely and then comes back on when I release the brake. It definitely seems like a short somewhere but finding it is going to be gangs of fun.

    Need Help Please Strange Problem

    I was just driving home from work and the car started to sputter. I step on the gas and it dies. Luckily I was only a couple of blocks from home. I also noticed that the tripmeter/odometer was blinking off and on. I then came to a traffic light and noticed that when I step on the brake the...
