Alright I have a 90 5.0 coupe...today I put a new cap rotar plugs & wires on, I also bought a new battery... Well after I installed the battery....when I turn my running lights on my tach stops working and the turn signal indicators stay on, any ideas? The car did sit for 2 years and I haven't replaced any fuses or switches.
