Unhappy help w/finding ground wire

Iam Having Problems With My Dash Lights, Rear Tail Lights And Front Signals.....one Response I Got Was To Check My Ground Wire Around My Aftermarket Air Intake. Apparently Someone Suggested That When I Installed My Intake That Maybe The Ground Wire Was Not Tightened Or Came Loose, Resulting In My Electrical Problems.....i Just Want To Know What Ground Wire Is This Person Refering To.......thanks To remove this ad, register today for free or log in if already registered!

we have a few. The main chassis ground goes from the battery to a point under the fuse box. Then there's a ground from near the thermostat to the left of the header that connects to the upper radiator chassis. Thats about it.

well if you installed an Injen CAI, I would suggest checking that ground wire that is next to where the filter sits because you have to unplug it and reinstall it wilth the intake and the intake rubber piece.

But I saw your other thread and you said that one of your fuses keeps blowing which makes me think that is your problem, still even could be causes by a shorted ground. Which fuse keeps blowing?

The Fuse That Keeps Blowing Is The Small Light Fuse (#2) Under The Hood. There Are Times When I Replace The Fuse W/ The Engine Off And Its Fine Until I Start Driving And The Car Goes Over The Smallest Bump. And There Are Other Times When I Replace The Fuse, It Blows Right Away...

well if the fuse keeps blowing, then you have a short somewhere. that is probably where your issue in the car is coming from.
