Driving home from moutains last night I lost electrical power to: turn signals, brake lights, tach, fuel gage, temp gage, speed control, power windows and maybe other stuff. Lights (front and tail)still working.
I looked at fuses this am and none were burned. Anyone have suggestion as to this problem? thanks. Nic in SC. |

Look for moisture and corrosion underneath the box that holds the fuses.

Chuck, thanks for suggestion. My car has had zero rust/corrode issues but this might be an exception. I'll try it tonight. Is removing fuse box tricky? I'm handy with tools but no mechanic. Nic.

I don't have a 123 body any more, but I don't think it's a big deal. The mechanic who found the problem for me spent two hours finding and fixing it.
Be sure to disconnect the battery, then I think it's a matter of a couple of screws and some careful tugging. This was a problem on my 280E, and I believe that it was caused by the drain hole under the hood hinge being clogged. All of the water coming off the windshield has to drain there. Good luck. Chuck |
