Hello, Im new to the forum, glad to be a part.
Now, I am looking for many things for my truck and I will keep each one to their own separate post.
First off, I have had troubles with my electrical system since a friend tried to install an aftermarket radio in my truck, but forgot to disconnect the battery, and a bunch of wires touched that connect to the back of the radio unit.
Now here's the problems:
• Radio won't turn on at all(first few weeks, it would come on only to display "no disc")
• Windshield wipers (front&back) will not move, neither will the sprayers work.
• Auto door lock(after driving off) will not lock anymore like it did before the spark show.
• And lastly but not least, the battery gets drained pretty badly(never happened before the disaster)
The battery can die within 10 minutes of just having a door open.
(Will get a new battery, eventually)
I have checked ALL fuses, both under the hood, and under the driver side. They are all fine, all other lights and such works as well.
My issue is, I don't know where else to check, I don't want to go poking around places I have no knowledge of.
But my question(s) here is,
1. Where else can I check?
2. What could be the issue?
3. If any tools are necessary, which ones do I get for fair price?
I would greatly appreciate all feedback, as any little info will help in fixing this issue. And again, glad to be a part of the forum
I had this truck little over a year, and plan to keep it as long as possible.
