Hey guys,
I was working under my 98 5 speed w/ e locker the other day and saw this. At first I thought it was an e brake cable so I looked closely as I was confused since my e brake works. I saw that my e brake is in fact connected as it should be.
I grabbed it and when it touched the axle, it sparked, telling me that it’s actually unterminated wiring. Now I have no dash lights or tail lights. I found the fuse for these in the engine bay fuse box but when I replace it, the new fuse immediately blows too.
What the heck did I do? What is this wiring? Thanks in advance!
