Hey guys, I'm having a bit of an issue
I took out my Control Unit thingy when i had a go at wrapping in carbon fibre  All i basically did is undo the 3 screws on the back, wrap and put back together and now next morning while driving my gauges went out while driving, Stopped and replaced the fuse but it blew instantly, I noticed the power windows don't work either however the fuse is not blown. I took the control unit thing out and unplugged the power window (along with the lock button) and put a new fuse for the gauges and then didnt blow. After driving for a while it was fine, but driving on the way back home on the highway the gauge went out again I am assuming the wiring must have been tugged and something came loose when playing with the control unit... because when i check now the fuse name it says gauges and metres, power door lock system so nothing to do with the control unit.. maybe a loose ground? anyone here got any ideas??

sounds like a screw is shorting out a wire
