Help with '80 problems...
Please help, my '80 is acting up on me. I have had several things go out on me in the last couple weeks so I am wondering if they could be related. First my dash lights don't light up at all, no guages, dome light, speedo etc. Next my headlights just quit going up. They always have worked fine but now will go done but not up. They don't even seem to be trying to work. (I was starting to think maybe the headlight pull went bad? I know you can dim your interior lights and it controls the headlights?) Now to top it off my tail lights and turn signals quit working. I know there is one fuse burned out on the top left of my panel but I can't read what any of the fuses are anymore. Does anyone have a fuse guide they can email me? Any ideas? Thanks,

Check out this website for 1980 electrical gremlins. I used it when I had an 80 and it really helped me a lot. Good luck.

Well the turn signals were a fuse but now the brake lights work, turn lights work but the back up lights only work when I put the car in reverse. Does this sound like the backup switch in the center console? Thanks,
