  • Electrical issues

    Passenger side turn signal showing steady.. same side daytime driving light is out. but light comes on at night when regular lights are on.

    Is it the fuse or the bulb .. also if it is the fuse can it cause the fuse that runs my instrument cluster to go out. I have had to get towed twice since september and all they do is pop another fuse and the car starts right up

    sounds like a bulb is out. see which one and it should be fine after that

      Sounds like a fault with Daytime Running Lights module (If your car has one fitted)

      Wouldn't have thought it was the bulb if it comes on with all your other lights

        Thats whats driving me crazy... when i drive at night the bulb lights up.. but in the day nothing at all.. plus it goes without saying i can use my turn signal.

        but my main issues is why i am blowing so many fuses.

        according to the tech at the dealer my #9 fuse runs my instrument cluster in the car and when it goes out the car wont start

        I've spent too much on towing just to have a fuse put in.

        i figure it may be the issue with the bulb or my pass sidedoor speaker that is going bad that is causing the fuse to blow

          Well, sounds to me like you have a short somewhere.
          Maybe a live wire is loose and is touching against a grounding point under certain conditions.

            Hopefully when I take it to a guy who supposedly knows auto electrical wiring can do a scan or something to find out where the short is

              Anyone know anything aboutthe daytime driving light module for our cars. We traced the problem to the wire that runs the drivinig light module .

              there about 4 diff modules that all lead to my guages fuse.

              driving light,body control,instrument cluster,brake tramission shift interlink.

              the thing is when the instrument cluster goes out
              i know if i turn the car off it wont start untill i put another fuse which immediately blows then i put another one in and i am fine
