Hi Guys
Does anyone have any thoughts on a good Electrical mechanic in Alabama
I live almost equal distance from Gadsden,Birmingham,and Huntsville.
Headlights only work on bright.
Blinkers don't work.
Windshield wipers don't work.
Battery drains in days and the red light on the defrost switch stays on all the time
any help greatly appreciated

Not really an appropriate thread for 5.0 Tech but...............

Try sending Bill302 a PM. He's a smart guy in Gadsden and can probably help you with resources.

Good luck.

I would get a multimeter from HF and set it in the
DC AMP mode.
Take off the POS battery terminal and connect the
meter red and black terminals between the
open connections.
The meter should read less than 100 mA (.1A)
If it is higher, start pulling one fuse at a time
and note the drop.

Check all fuses for being blown and
check the fuselink wires
connected to the solenoid.
