Car Wiring Mends Itself! Options

[antonioguy]

Since I bought my '95 ST I have had no dome light, no clock, no door chime, no door lights, no door ajar light, and no seatbelt light. I have tried everything, I changed all the fuses thinking that its possible one might be faulty but not visibly faulty, I also changed the jamb switches. This was all for nothing.

Last night I decided to work on it again, as I was already in my garage tinkering after installing LED bulbs in the sidemarkers and above the license plate. I decided to pull the fuse in the dash labeled "Door" which is a strange Toyota box fuse, not a relay fuse though. I was looking at the fuse very carefully, and I did not see any faults with it, and at that moment I happened to look back at the interior of the car and it seemed lit. After careful inspection I saw that all the things that had never worked now did, including the dome and clock. I then realized that the central locking didn't work. I assumed that there must be some crossed wires in the dash.

I then decided that it would be in my best interest to place the fuse back in so that my central locking would work. And after reinstalling the fuse EVERYTHING now works.

I have no idea what could have caused this and what could have happened but HUZZAH!!! Everything now works, I didn't even know that these cars had a door chime until just then LOL!
