two minor electrical problems
I took my dash apart earlier this week, and after I put it back together two things were different.
1) my windshield wipers work, but only on the lo/hi settings, all the adjustable timed settings below don't work anymore.
2) my dome light is permanently on, I had to take the bulb out to keep from killing my battery. The door buttons seem to be making good contact too, so I don't think that is the problem.
Both problems started right after I put my dash back together, and I've never had trouble with these problems before. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan

dash wiring often gets grounded out when the dash is put back together. wires can become pinched when everything is tightened down. Your best bet is to take the dash apart again and check for any problems. I try to check that everything works as i hook it up to avoid problems.
