I've run into a weird electrical problem (aren't they all, though?). I have a '78 B - the other day while driving my stereo cut out for a second then came back on. It happened once or twice thereafte

Thanks, will try that too. Hopefully it's something simple like that - I don't have the time do slog through the whole electrical system this week - it'd be nice if it was a simple fix. /// or try ht

I have cleaned the contacts on the purple & green fuses and reconnected the power. No change (radio, interior courtesy light, cigar plug - all on the purple circuit are dead), but this time when I ch

If the fuse blew instantly, that means something is shorting. You may want to pull your radio out of the center console and check the connections in there. The attachment to my cigar lighter had a s

Thanks - someone else also suggested the cig lighter to me. I use it for my cell phone power, but wouldn't have thought to check it. I pulled the radio and on the surface it looked okay, although I

I guess I'll check the cig lighter and CD player to start. The cig lighter has two referrals - all others have none - so I guess I'll start there! Thanks - Tab /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/

I've had the pretty much the same problem. I finally pulled the radio and the DPO had wired the radio into the heater switch by just removing some insulation, and "sticking" the radio wire into the

The riveted joints of the fuseblock may have bad contacts sometimes. Replace block if any sign of this. It's worthwhile. Cheers, Hans '71 BGT tab@penworks.com quasi-circuit - affect came fix /// or t
