Hello everyone, we are working on my sister's YJ and here is everything going wrong...
Initial issue was she kept blowing fuses for hazards and stop lights. Second issue was her instrument panel didn't light up when turning headlights on. Then the harness running up to the brake light switch was getting scorching hot when testing things. Now we can't get her radio to turn on, the cigarette lighter wire we used for the AC is not getting power, dash and instruments still don't light up, and we broke the brake light switch. We have the dash mostly off, and from what we can tell there are no bare wires, no bad grounds, but we can't figure out what to even do next. Could her fuse box be bad from blowing too many fuses? Is her wiring harness bad? Is it the battery? Alternator?
She also said her headlights dim when applying the brakes. It's an absolute nightmare.
