my taillights dont work, and neither do my dash light, but my brake lights do and also my reverse lights, my main fuse in the engine bay is broken off.... could this be the problem???

 

Might be, replace any fuse thats burned out, and see if their still out.

 

If you cant salvage that fuse block, email one of the guys selling 2nd gen parts in the for sale section... someone probably has one. So, is it the 80amp fuse thats broken off but everything else still works??



Its Chris by the way... I was trying to help you on IM last night for a bit.

 

yes is it the 80 amp fuse... there are 2 prongs that the fuse goes into and those are broken off.... im gonna buy a headlight switch if i can find one somewhere cant figure this car out

 

the main fuse is bolted in there. 1 bolt on each side

probably why its broken, some animal tried removing it I guess, lol



The wiring harness going to the light switch can also burn out.

 

so where could i get a new harness?????

 

mazda, its not very expensive

that happened to my FC. I had to replace the light switch. the board got fried in the switch. got it at a junk yard.



check that out before getting a whole new harness.

 

I only meant to also check the harness, not the WHOLE harness, just the one that goes to the light switch.

According to Jim its really only one wire that goes bad in it, so a harness

isnt needed, just a wire repair.
