Chrysler Repair: 92 acclaim electrical problem, relevant history, electrical problem


Question
Have 92 acclaim, all at once I lost my radio, rear window defroster , back up lights and I believe my air bags (the air bag light in the dash remains on all the time) is there a common ground or relay they share.Have checked fuses and they are OK.

Answer
Hi Ray,
I would look again at fuse #11 which plays a role in all of those systems. It could have a very small crack that has caused it to "open" and you wouldn't see it necessarily. Other than that the section of ignition switch that feeds the switch could be bad, but then you would also loose your AC/heater in-cabin blower motor. So if that hasn't happened I would verify that you are getting power to fuse #11 when the ignition is in "run" and that the fuse is conducting and/or that voltage is on both sides of the fuse. Let me know what you find and any other relevant history.
