Weird Electric Voodoo - Thoughts?
I have a 2004 STR that I'm getting close to calling it a day with. I've had a few challeneges with it, and the latest is an odd lighting gremlin.
The other day driving - of course at night - I lost the following simultaneously:
- My passenger side headlight (both high (reg bulb) and xenon low beam However fog lights and the daytime bulb continue to work
- Passenger side remote mirror control
- Dashboard, center console, door switch and gauge (speedo/tach) lights are all dark, but not the lighting behind the nav screen or the lighting behind the led screen on the gauges. Radio and A/C continues to work.
- Remote fuel door release! (I am now using the emergency release in the trunk to fill gas)
I looked at the manual and have checked several fuses and relays with no identified issues, but I can't find any common points in those either. I've also played around with the auto dimming settings on the steering wheel stalk, but everything seems to be working as intended. I suspect there must be some central common point, but given the distribution of what's wrong I'm stymied to guess where.
Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Chuck
