Also, when I turn my headlights on my temp gauge will instantly just up about 10-15 degrees. I'm thinking my lights may be trying to get a ground through my gauges if that's possible. Any schematics out there...or any ideas?
Thanks, Ray
Something to try thats quick and easy. Take a set of jumper cables and clamp one to the engine block somewhere and the other side to the frame. Then try the lights and see if that helps. Sounds like a bad ground to me.
