its been over a month now of not being able to drive
i have completely lost my mind and become a raving b**ch (and im not kidding)
i need help !!!!!!
i have two concerns
Does the following mean i have good brakes?
stepping hard on the brakes and having both back tires leave skid marks on the pavement.
i put the front up on a jack and spun the front tire having someone step on brakes tire stopped so assuming that means i have brakes all the way around?(as in proportioning valve is working correctly)?
hope so...
LAST THING i have to to fix for inspection is the brake warning light that wasnt coming on when the key was turned. can you believe it? we wont even mention the defroster issue or the back window not going up as quickly as the guy thought it should.
when turning the key to start what causes the brake warning light to come on? then when turning to run what causes it to go off.?
since the diagrams show a hot red wire coming from fuse box to the warning lights in the instrument cluster im thinking that the only thing it could be is the brown wire common to both the emergency brake and proportioning valve that goes to the ignition switch is supposed to ground when you turn the key to start causing the brake warning light to come on. is this correct?
the switch i refer to is on the steering column there is a pink hot wire coming out of it also. next to it is the other switch that starts the jeep.
so if i start the jeep, its running and the stupid little brake light bulb is still on and i have both emergency brake and proportioning valve wires unplugged does it stand to reason that somehow the ignition switch is not going into position correctly to unground the wire ?
when you put it into run position is it supposed to stay there? keeping the BROWN wire from grounding again?
if none of the above is correct could the round large connector on the back of the instrument cluster have something to do with this??
i cant trouble shoot if i dont know how the system is supposed to work in the first place
i will say that none of my gauges work except the battery gauge.
i have power on both the large red and large yellow wires attached to the instrument cluster. my ground is attached and attached at the other end as well.
in probing the back of the large round connector on the back of the cluster with it connected i found power in only one wire.
so is it ignition switch not working correctly??
or the large round connector is not working correctly to turn off power to bulb somehow?
i really need help here guys i have got to have a working vehicle i really thought i had figured this out yesterday and turns out i didnt
if i can get this working right and my brakes are finally good i can call for an inspection
so PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
