my buddy is coming over again later to help again and im gonna take all my relays out and try them in his car to see if they are bad

 

just went out and checked and the wipers are not working either

 

Did you check for power at the ip ign fuse terminals yet or if the fuse is bad?


Hope you didn't fry the fuse box,would have to take it apart and look inside for a burnt out trace etc...

If the relay is good and with the key being turned you still don't have power at either terminal for the ip ign fuse ,I would say it's looking like the fuse box.

Let me know what you find.

 

yea the fuse is good but theres no power going to it. i dont have a volt meter so i just used my test light and got nothing

 

Wipers need the key on ,did you have the key turned on ?

 

yea the key was on and they didnt work. how hard is it to remove the fuse box?

 

Pull out the relay crank/run and check the contacts on it and the fuse box carefully looking for burning or if they are still shiny new.

 

the relays contact points are still shiny and i cant see any burn marks but can kinda still smell it when i get close to it

 

Not 100 percent but I think the fuse box bus might be burnt out ,
Check the contacts for a bunch of the bigger fuses and see if they have power on them or not .
Same as last time remove the fuse and probe both sides for power a lot of the bigger fuse are fed directly from the battery.looks like any over 15 amp pretty well.

Let me know how many don't have power.

You have power on the terminal on the top of the fusebox? (for boosting the car)

 

ok. im gonna check them now. and yea the power lead on the fuse box is getting power

 

any yea the trunk release still works

 

Well then the fuel pump is not being told to turn on due to the problem with the fuse box.

 

ok. ill have to start taking the fuse box out tomorrow after work and see if i can figure out whats going on. thanks for all of ur help, it got me further on figuring out what the problem could be. ill let you know what i find when i take the fuse box out.

 

Shouldnt be to hard.
If you can get it apart you might be able to fix it but might be best to replace it.


Did you check for power at the bigger fuses,how did that go.

 

yea hopefully its not too hard. i didnt get to check the big ones since i ran out of daylight but the ip ign fuse wasnt blown but it was bunt alittle around the prongs close to the plastic part of the fuse

 

So what did you find.
Need some closure here.

Did you get the car fixed?

 

something on the circuit board got burnt up. i got another fuse box off ebay and replaced it lastnight and everything is working and back to normal now. i got the fuse box for 60 bucks and im making that kid pay me 100 for the problems he caused. thanks for all of your help, i really appreciate it.
