New Battery and Now Lights, Mirrors, etc. Won't Work - Help
The battery went dead last night, it was an older battery so I went and got a new one. Car now starts fine. HOWEVER, the headlights, marker lights, dash lights, power locks, and power windows are not working.
These ALL worked properly before I replaced the battery.
Wondering what happened? Did I fry something by accident?
89 Trans Am
THANKS!!

Sounds like you blew a Fusible Link.
Fusible Links usually look like a one inch plastic rod in line with the wire and are located near the battery or at the starter.
Use a bulb or meter to probe both sides of the links to find out which one went bad.

If My Engine Has An Illegal Part, And The Inspector Doesn’t Hear It, Does It Make A Sound?
