Wussup all, long time no talk. I'm having a major problem here, need some help, I'm completely baffled. Tsiah, if you see this, let me know what you think.
Car will not start AT ALL. I turn the ignition, I get nothing, no electrical at all. When I have it in the start position though, I hear an extremely faint beep, beep, beep, like you usually here, but really softly. Also, the red security light on my deck with the faceplate removed flashes too, those are the only two signs of electricity in the car.
Searched the forum, couldn't find a similar problem, and I have no clue at all!!!!!!!
Recently, my last deck died so I had to buy a new one, installed it, it works fine for 3 days then all of a sudden I get a 'Protect' signal on the deck, meaning a short. I take the deck out, unplug it, plug it back in, it works fine for 3 more days or so, no problems. On the 3rd day, I get the Protect message again, I'm like fawk!!! I'm stopped at a red light, so I turn the car off and then go to turn it back on, NOTHING, hasn't showed a sign of life since. Had to push it off the road and get towed home. When I started the car though on the way to getting stranded at the red, it started just fine, no problems at all. Stop at the red, shut it off, hasn't spoken to me since.
Here's what I've checked so far. 12V at the battery, ~10V at the starter, ~10V at the fuse box. Opened the fuse box in the engine bay, took the cover off the important fuses on the left, all the fuses are good, no problems at all. Checked all my grounds in the bay, checked all connections, checked my wiring around my radio, can't find a thing.
Here's what I have. 1989/90 Lude, b21a1, auto to manual swap, S-->Si swap (all electrical components were from the '90Si). I've never had a problem at all with starting (except when it's hot:Rock
.
Also, just changed out my speed sensor like 2 weeks ago, haven't had a single problem with it though so I doubt that's it, that's the only electrical type work I've done lately though (and the new deck).
WHAT THE FAWK IS WRONG WITH MY CAR????
Any ideas? Any help is much appreciated, I'm stumped!! Thanks guys.
