Ok, well this is really getting annoying. I checked my starter and it's fine, the thing is when I have the key on accessory I can turn on my headlights, turbo timer, etc...(i dont have much else)..and it's fine. BUT, when I turn the key everything dies..lights go off, turbo timer switches off, etc. The weird thing is I haven't touched anything under the dash since I had the JSpec in it and it started and ran with no issues with the JSpec. The ONLY electrical thing I have changed was I pulled the BTN fuse I think a while back...but I was told that it was for the brakelights...so that shouldn't have affected anything right? I'm going to install a direct 40amp push button starter "key" and **** the rest of it. I just want it to crank over.



Do you think all of this could be caused by something in the engine bay that maybe I forgot to ground out, etc?? I have one small ground that I saw that wasn't hooked up...and I'm going to fix that later this week, but I'm sure its for the TPS harness, etc....what could this be...it's annoying!

Let me get this straight, @ the accessory position of the ign everything works as it should, when u turn the car to **on** everything goes out?

Exactly....

We were thinking maybe reversed polarity...but if that were true the acc would work would it?

That is strange, well whatever that fuse is I would toss that back in.

Really...hmmm....well thankfully we have a nice parts car, and I've got another fuse, I'll throw it in and see, but of course my battery is dead again...



I want to know what else the BTN controls then...lol...
