Re: Autoelectician needed
It would help us if you told us what bulbs are blowing. What fuses have a jumper going to them.
The siren going off all the time sounds like a common problem with the sirens on this car. Make a long story short the batteries leak over time and short out the circuit board that they are a part of in the siren. My buddies did the same thing. He unhooked the negative battery terminal and pulled the number 9 fuse under the hood on the passengers side.There should be a card under the lid to tell you which one number nine is. It is usually a 10 AMP Red fuse. The siren has a battery back up so it will go off(very loud!) for awhile till the batteries drain. Then reconnect negative battery cable and he has had no more problems with that.
He also has no mechanical skills so that was his simple solution.
Now my solution if you want to go a little further you will have to unplug the siren located under the front cowl where the windshield wipers are connected. There is a thread here that is great on how to do it. You will need a puller to help take the windshield wipers off. (highly recommended!)
I just did this because my siren was sounding like a cricket on crack as they say here. And mine would go off at the most random times especially when it was hot out! I bought a new siren for mine. I bought my new siren from needswings.
I am also trying to repair mine but it is in pretty bad shape so we will see how that goes but for $11 for the replacement batteries I said i'll give it a shot. The batteries can be found on ebay. If you want the link let me know.
Hope I helped.
P.S> If you go the cowl removal route take the time to clean out the four drainage ports under there there is one on the drivers side one in the middle and two on the passengers side.
