So I have been working on my jeep project for about a year. I started with a disgusting rusty 2000 TJ that I bought as a little project but soon realized I had to go all in or not at all. So I got a good frame and a tub and started the transplant. I am at the point where I have fixed and painted the tub. Cleaned up and painted the frame new brake and fuel line and have rebuilt most of it.
In the last week I managed to get all of the wiring hooked up and the dash reinstalled. Yesterday I hooked up a battery and turned the key. She started right up. I was excited and life was good.
Then I noticed the electrics are all messed up. I have a no bus error on the dash and the check engine light and airbag light are on. None of the gauges work and the dash does not light up when I pull the headlight switch. Looks like a bunch of other electrical related stuff is messed up. Taillights are working correctly. up front, nothing is working. Headlights and turn signals are all messed up. no headlights, turn signals don't come on except when I turn on the headlight switch and then the right side signal light comes on dimly and the right dash turn indicator comes on. Then if I turn on the turn signal the wrong side light will flash.
I have cleaned and checked the cluster connectors and they seem fine with no change.
Any inspiration? guidance and links to wiring diagrams or DIY's are much appreciated.
thanks
Mark
