Default New 2002 with problems...

Just got a new"to me"02 coupe. Electron Blue,with 161K. miles. No pass history on car known, it runs and drives great but has a few things to fix. Any ideas on where to start would be helpful...(1)Headlites won't go up,,They lite up and go up manual. #3and 4 fuses on motor fuse box are good...(2) Turn signals will only flash if you move turn lever...(3) Horn blows until relay is pulled out...(4) Seats work when fuses are in but they drain the battery overnite...(5) Heads up display not working,no idea on this one...I don't know if any of these things may be related. Thanks in advance for any help with these problems...Bob

I agree with 8VETTE7 that you have a number of normal issues we have seen many times before.

With that said, if you can't find the info you need what you should do is create a new Thread and identify only ONE problem in any that you create. It gets too confusing to handle more than one issue in a Thread. It also helps others to see what you did to correct the issue.

You are welcome to PM me with your phone number and we can discuss each of these issues so you better understand what may be going on which could help you in your searches or better the understanding of what they are saying. I can also send some links directly to you. I have worked on every one of these issues at least once.
