Brlinetta's never have electrical problems ?!?!?!?!
1a) Radio Cassette ( door will not open)
1b) Radio Cassette ( cassette will not play )
2a) Blinker(s) (switch, unsually the left turn )
2b) Blinker(s) (Light Module had a seizure )
3a) Exterior Lighting ( headlights stay on, light module toasted )
3b) Exterior Lighting ( NO headlights - light module toasted )
3c) Interior Lighting ( Courtesy Lights stay on - light module toasted )
4a) Speedometer Cluster ( burnt out circuit boards )
4b) Speedometer Cluster ( Works fine during the day but goes dark when headlights are turned on, light module toasted )
5a) Wiper will not turn off ( Wiper OFF button broke
5b) Wiper will not turn off ( Wiper Motor cover fried )
6) No Air Cond. ( pod not sending battery voltage to AC system )
7) Heater blower speed ( blower relay spazzed out )
8) Air Flow from heater blower ( Vacuum Soleniod only allows air flow from the defroster vents )
There are more, but you get the idea...... The order in which the *major* berlinetta electrical parts seem to fail the most often is :
Radio
Blinker pod
Light Module
Speedo Cluster
Wiper pod
Hope that helps yo in some way !!
