Loose connection?

Hey Guys. I was on my way to work this morning and the lights for my ac/heater controls were flashing on and off. It did it the whole way to work. Would there be a fuse that was for the bottom lights only (b/c the top didnt flash) or could the connector be loose for them or what. Anyone?

Sounds like a loose fuse to me.

I had the same thing happen when I first got the car Adam - push down all your fuses and relays and you should be good to go! *Be very careful when putting the fusecover back on, it is easy to unseat some fuses/relays by accident if you don't place it squarely down onto its base.

Hope it helps,

Just make sure you don't start to put it on crooked, or you'll end up like my rental. This is what greeted me when I opened the hood:



Someone had put the fusebox cover on crooked - and it was stuck with the front up in the air as in this pic! Also, take a gander at all those leaves!?!

I had to use a screwdriver to pry under the rear tab to get the cover off, then put it on correctly. (*And yes, there were still a bunch of loose fuses and relays!)

Anyway, be careful putting it on Adam (think "Operation" the game).

I've taken it off before and reseeded them not even a month ago, and I put it on right. Normally takes me a minute or two but I get it on.
