Lights issue (Page 1/1)
mencalico SEP 02, 10:49 AM
I have a 1987 base coupe. All it's lights used to work how they should but now they don't, I will try to explain as best I can.
No park lights work but the headlights do.
When you have the emergency lights on only the passenger side blinks, but if you turn on the turn signal both sides work.
I replaced all light related fuses but same thing. Also, this didn't start happening until I replaced the front blinker lights and one on the back, it was fine for rest of that day, then it blew the front driver blinker I had replaced a long with the one I replaced on the back. Now it does what I wrote above.
Could it just be a bare wire somewhere, or could there be more going on?
Any help is appreciated.

Dr. Ian Malcolm: Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Mencalico turns out to be a PM scammer. He scours The Mall and sends PMs to anyone looking for a part claiming he knows someone who probably has it. You email that person, he just so happens to have that exact part, you send money which you then never see again. Nor do you ever get that part.

I mean, at least he started off with exactly what model of Fiero he has. This makes Patrick happy! Hahah...
