Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting No Fogs, ABS and Battery Dash Lights Are On

I had the starter replaced on my CSVT and of course before giving in and having a shop do the work, I was probing around quite a bit.

Nopw, the Battery light is on, the ABS light is on and the Fog lights do not work.

I understand there is a common point with the wiring for the Fog lights and the Alternator.

What about the ABS light?

I can't seem to locate a schematic showing the ABS electrical and need to know what color to look for.

I bet there is a broken wire, but to know what color wire to look for would help.

Does it run through the Engine Fuse Box?

Please, any help would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, new starter was $400.00...OUCH

Sounds like a break in the harness running from the firewall out to the engine bay on the drivers side.

OK, thanks Tony...I keep going over the same connections that I repaired in the past but nothing...

I did have the Engine Compartment Fuse Box all apart, maybe one of the connectors aren't snapped together correctly?

How come there are no diagrams showing the Fog lamps circuitry?

Can't find any that show the Fog lamps at all.

By the way, the starter was bad after all...car starts fine now.

OK, case closed.

I found the reason that the alternator was not working as well as the Fog Lamps being totally inoperative.

Inside the Engine Compartment Fuse Box, attached to F5 there is a heavy Red wire that powers F5 and when I pulled the Fuse Box all apart, I neglected to reconnect this Red wire.

It attaches to the Fusible Links, (There are 3 in a row bussed together on the battery side).

Once I reconnected the Red wire everything works "Like It Should"

Thanks for Your help Tony
