Sup fellas. Need urgent help before I take my car to an electrical shop.
2003 Lincoln town car
Have not installed no car audio equipment yet.
When I am driving the car and I use my turning signals either left or right turning signal it kills all the electrical on my dash board and the AC shuts off. The dash board starts going crazy with the gauges going up and down uncontrollably. Scared when this happens and I am on the freeway. Then after like 5 or 10 seconds everything comes back to normal and starts working properly.
It did this yesterday. I was pulling in to a parking lot used my right turning signal and boom it killed the AC off completely and the whole dash board off also. The car was still drivable but the steering wheel felt stiff as if the car was loosing power. Really weird.
Can the turning signals be causing a short when turned on? Interfering with other electrical components in the car?
Also today the car wouldn’t turn on at all. Only the stereo will turn on. Dashboard and AC like stated previously will not turn on. When trying to turn the ignition the car won’t respond it’s just completely dead but you could hear a clicking sound though as if the car wants to turn on.
This is driving me crazy. Help guys
