Bad Idle After Warm-up and No Dashlights...one old and one new "Q"
OK...'89 Firebird, 305 TBI. Still having problems with idle after warm-up. Its' showing codes 13, 32, 34 and 44. I've checked my Haynes manual, so I know what they mean....but how could they be connected?
Keep in mind, I have a new MAP sensor and O2 sensor. I also replaced the fuel filter about 6 months ago....but a bit of history on the fuel is in order.
Seems the fuel cap was left off of the car for a rather extensive period of time before I got it. Could water in the tank be a factor?
Now...to the dash lights. They were working just fine until I installed a radio. I couldn't get a 12V "memory feed" from the standard harness, so I removed the console top plate and tapped into the console light for feed.
Now the dash lights don't work. Yes...I checked the fuses in the fuse access panel. They are all fine. Also, tail lights and running lights are still working...as well as the courtesy lights.
Is there a fuse somewhere else I don't know about? If not, anyone got an idea as to where to start looking?
Thanks,
