    think i shorted something.....

    well the car was running fine for about 5 minutes before i had the worst idea in the world. I thought it would be a grand idea to take the backup brake lights that were just dangling from my engine and touch them to the engine while it was running. Well a huge spark came off of it and now i have no tach, fuel gage, temp gage, and my seatbelt warning light when i turn on the car. The wires have been off my car for some time now and since i just got the car running correctly i thought i would fix that last thing, but i fucked it all up. I checked the fuses and they all look fine, so what do i look for??

    Do you know where the change compartment is? Fuses are behind there. There is a 1/4 turn fastener on top , turn it and pull down, you'll see the fuses. I think the 1/4 turn lock will say "fuses" on it.
