Smile Electrical Problems - For What It's Worth

Kept having intermittant problems with different electrical issues. Brake light and turn signal would cancel each other out - problems were solved with a new voltage regulator. Horns not working all the time, ignition sometimes dead when trying to start, ignition going dead while driving, and emergency flashers not working all the time all resulted from corroded contacts in the fuse box. Goes back to checking the simple things first. Most of you certainly have more experience than I do, but maybe this will help a rookie. I know from my own experience that wiring/electrical problems can sometimes be very difficult and time consuming, not to mention frustrating. Hope this helps someone down the road.

That's exactly why I wanted to replace the entire wiring in my car. Faulty wiring can be dangerous as well as frustrating. I'm glad you have your problem solved, and hope it stays solved.
