hey guys new to the site long time reader. i'm on to my 4th stang its a 98 gt vert.

I like to back track a tad, to explain the full situation.
I was fixing the auto shiftier housing the other day and i ripped the O/D button so when i was sodering it back together i made the bone head move of not disconnecting the battery. so when i got them sodered back together they touched. spark. ugh.
so any way i just replaced the whole O/D wire, CJ pony parts had a nice clean new one. well i got it all back together then O/D didn't show on dash and convertible top was silent. ugh again

so in short i have the motor not making noise when i push on the relay. i checked all the fuses under hood and dash, they looked good (is there a specific number i need to check i don't have the manual, and i'm more familiar with foxes). I'm not getting any clicks from the motor, so is that the relay behind the rear seats? i had a 93 vert back in the day but never had a top problem so i'm kinda a noob to test for it. there is no leaks or nothing. parking brake light shows on dash so thats good. is there a ground for all of those that would have gotten messed up with the spark from the O/D cause wires all seem to loop together. any help would be great. again lov the site.

Howdy mate. Try to replace new fuse, there are few that might tripping since you had spark.

U know which number fuses under hood and dash by chance. Missing manual and Google gives me a few different diagrams not identical to what I got.

Sorry I didn't give an update back. Problem solved fuse 4 under the dash is for the cigarette lighter. That popped when the o/d sparked. Put a new one in and it popped again. Then come to find out it was the wrong amped fuse put in new one problem sloved.
