okay. so it starts withthe ebrake light coming on.

go inside come out a few hours later.

ebrake light still on
blower motor not working(just replaced the resisitor for a seperate issue)
windows dont work
static when attempting to use windows through speekers.

on a sperate issue,i had to tighten the passenger headlight ground, and replace the resistor block. all this seems to be going at the same time.

now. i replaced the 40 that was in there with the appropriate 50amp. popped it

ive done a quick once over with out totally ripping the truck apart to see whats up

SO can anyone shead some light on this for me?

Thanks
Chad


EDIT- oh yeah. i can assume its a ground, somewhere. for something...

 

sounds like a bunch of separate issues, the ebrake light could simply be that the ebrake is stuck partially engaged, the heater motor not working probably a bad motor itself, the windows and the static could be crossed wire in the wire looming

 

its not.. i forgot to mention it only does it when the truck is running/ motor running)
its all one issue. cause i put the fuse in( a new one) and all is good until i start the truck and hit the window..

 

Looking at the schematic, it appears the fuses for the power windows (30 amp, slot #3), blower (30 amp, slot#4), back-up lights (10A, slot #2) and dash warning light (5A, slot #13) are all fed by the ignition switch. Could be a bad ignition switch.

 

THATS ALL FINE AND DANDY BUT GUMMER SAID

"and all is good until i start the truck and hit the window.."

SO IF IT WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH THEN IT WOULD MESS UP BEFORE HE HITS THE WINDOW SWITCH. I THINK HE'S GOT A WINDOW REGULATOR THAT HAS PINCHED A WIRE DURING IT'S DOWNWARD TRAVEL!

 

if it's a window regulator harness shorting, wouldn't the fuse for the windows blow instead? How is the fuse for the heater blowing when he hits the window switch? I wouldn't think the power feed for the blower doesn't goes thru a door jam or into the door.

 

WELCOME HOME IRAQVET!!!

 

thanks parts man! maybe I'm reading his message wrong...is the window fuse blowing when he hits the window switch?

 

its the 50 amp-er that is under the hood popping. i cant figure it out. havnt tried all that hard yet.

but my only option is to follow the wires that go from the fues under the hood that is popping..

un-loomed all the wires going to the bulk head. found one that was rotted. fixed that bitch.
went inside under the dash. theres one that i need to pull out of a harness, not sure what its for buts its garbage.

noticed there was a fuse coming from the coloum. it has 2 bigger( not sure what gauge) wires coming from the coloum to this fuse. i doubt its stock. but it was all melted to **** so i fixed it up and shes golden again!

i love molested wiring[&:]

anyways. thanks for the help guys. now to put it all back together,...
