Short I think?!
Guys,
I went to turn on the car today when it was a dead battery! Well by luck it turned over and I got it running! Then I figured out that all the interior lights were on! Well I messed with all the door jams they seem to be ok, and I made sure the light switch wasn't on (I turn it down all the way). But nothing they stayed on......
Anyone know anything about a 91 vette that I am in the dark about?
Thanks,
Bill

I had a similar problem this week but I noticed they were staying on as I was driving. Come to find out, it was a little cushioning pad that had fallen off of the rear hatch switch. This prevented the rod that sticks down from the hatch from pushing the switch far enough to turn off the lights. Glued it back on and all was well. On a '95 though, the lights will go out after 15 minutes when the car is parked, even if a door or the hatch is open, ajar, etc. Not sure about a '91. I'll hope your problem is just as simple as mine was!

OK my problem has done from lights to crap!
Now here are my new problems.
1) All interior lights stay on
2) Engine light comes on for 5 min then off for another 5 then all over again
3) When I go to give it gas its like a rollar coaster effect up then down up then down, the tach is having a field day
Someone anyone have any ideas what this may be?
