Need Help on Electrical Issues
I need some help on some electrical issues on am having on 821. I had all of the lights working on my car and was troubleshooting a tachometer issue. The tach issue turned out to be a plug pin pushed back into the plug so that it was no longer making contact. I fixed it then went to recheck all my lights again to be sure everything else was still working only to discover that now the brake lights, the front and rear right signal lights and the left rear signal light no longer work. I have checked (visually and with a DVM) all of the plug pin connectors for pins not contacting; I have verified that the brake light switch is working. The tail lights do work when I switch on the night time running lights. The only single item that I can think of that would cause all of these lights to stop working would be the steering column mounted relay board. A picture of the board is attached. The fuses on the back of the board are good. I suppose I could have multiple failures but after all the inspection of the wiring and troubleshooting I have done I can’t imagine what they would be. I am about to push the panic button as I have a state VIN and safety inspection scheduled in about 10 days. Am I missing something here? Am I off base on thinking the relay board has failed? Any guidance troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
