Problems With The STE |
Okay now a little explaination about my Problems with the car. My Head lights never worked Right. I bought the car from a Friend who stated that he Just spent $600 on the car to get the Headlights to work they worked for him for 3 days {they replaced all the Relays]. He got pissed at the car and sold it to me because he could not get them to work right after looking into it for months. Then I got the car. well I started to look into this whole Headlight thing well it turns out my Tail light/brake lights where messed up too. so then thats when I decided that I need Brake lights First. so I took out the Trunk liner just to find the Brake lights where Wired the the 3rd brake light inorder to get them to light up. well they didnt even wire the Right set of wires so when headlights where on I had 2 brake lights on and when I hit the brake they would go out. they used Phone cables and speaker wire and also a cut off extention cord to wire this set up. My friend didnt even know this nor the shop that worked on his headlights. So I spent 6 hours with my Friend Mark Rewireing these tail lights. Just to find out one side doesnt have Brake lights. well we where getting tired at 12am so we decided to Run the wire off the Oposit side to get Brake lights. now we have Brake lights and now My DIC thinks I dont but hey atleast they are ther. and I took the wires off of the 92 GP parts car so when I get time I can Run the new Wires back to the Tail lights to get them to work Right. Now the Headlights okay here is what happens when you Turn on the Headlights only the Fog lights work. the one time I got Headlights to work they where on highbeams how ever only the lows where on. I then Figured it may be the dimmer switch well I looked at it and it tested Fine so then before buying a headlight switch {whitch IM still looking for} I started to look at the wires and noticed that they where melted by the Front Drivers side. okay so there is the problem. well the Problem with that is. it disconnects under the car and under the dash and not in the engine compartment like I though. well I now have all the wires from the 92 GP Parts car to hopfully fix my Headlights however THe relays look different. when I get a chance to talk to this AWSOME guy who stated I have First Crack at this Junked STE for parts when he gets the motor out . I will probly Either have him pull or go down there and Visit him to get these parts that I need and when I do I want to Pull the entire harness headlights and all. that way I can Just use a Direct Replacement for mine. |
UPDATE: I have found an complete harness for my headlights from an STE turbo I no longer will have to Trace the wires. and mount my outdated 92 LE harness w/o DIC. I have also found a set of Perfect Door Badges. I will be mailing out the money order for these next Friday. |
