This all started when my blinkers stopped working.I pulled the flasher relay and noticed it was blown.I bought a flasher relay at the acura shop cause auto zone and orielys didnt have the one for my car.I put in the flasher relay and still blinkers didnt work.I pulled all the fuses and replaced all the ones that were no good and put them all in the correct order.blinkers did not work!!! I went to the junk yard and found a 1993 acura vigor standard and took off the turn switch and hazzard switch and came home and put the switch and hazzard switch on and blinkers worked!!! Now one more problem; the left side blinkers stayed lit on and the right side blinkers blinked (worked).When i pushed the hazzard switch (button) all blinkers lit up and stayed on with no flash.This includes the inside light meters too! At the end of the day,I got pissed and banged my hand of the Dash hard cause my anger and Wa La, Blinkers worked both sides and hazzards too!:) Next morning, I went to start my car and noticed the blinkers and hazzord stopped working.I thought i could bank the dash and for it to come on again.Nothing!!! I went and got a cruse controll switch cause my cruse control lit up for the first time and it worked again.I used to blow fuses every day, now no more fuses want to blow?weird!!! OK, Now my radio wont work, its a cd player. So i got a tester and tested the wires and all hot but red,red is the ignition wire and should turn hot after starting the car,No hot when start car.Also my thermastat doesnt work.when my blinkers used to work,thermastat worked.When I shortly had blinkers on and use the the thermastat world blink to from hot to cold as blinker tempo. when this was happening and i would push my hazzords at time working, it would switch from hot to cold untell i unpressed the hazzard button.My ABS light and Check engine light would also take part play and brake lights would stay on when car was shut off and swith was off too.I fixed that by going under the driver collom where the brake peddles are and noticed a little button, with blue tape on it. I realized that was purposely there so when you let off the brake the peddle goes back and pushes the button to turn brake lights off when you let off the peddle.When I fixed it I used more tape then the first person used, so it hits that button for sure.Then as I did this my engine light and ABS went off.Rpm doesnt work either.Ok if any one read this and would have a brillent idea why this is happening let me and every one whos having this issue to know.1992 Acura Vigor. Blinkers hazzards, thermestat gauge, Rpm gauge doesnt work.Is this because a ground wire is not connected or maybe a hot wire toutching something in the dash.I need to take off the whole dash but It wont come off, so i dont know how to get to the wires to check.I removed the rpm and mph kit and still no wirers but a huge cord allot of wires wrapped around black tape and need help asap, Thanks for all the mechanics and electrical experts...Jeff

sounds like you have a bad dash wire harness. go back to the junk yard that you got the turn signal switch and take the dash harness out and switch it with yours. while you have it out check for burnt wires.
