Electrical failure
« on: 12 February 2012, 22:53:44 »

Hi, just searched in and found someone else with the same problem but no replies: Here goes.
Was trying to fit a new radio, the live wire split and arced across to the radio.
Just gone out, and realised Speedo, rev counter, temp, fuel gauge, mid, radio, climate control, hazard lights & when you lock & unlock doors indicators dont flash.
Is everything operated off the one fuse so ive got an idea where to start looking tomorow?
Thanks.
Also, where is the fuse board on the Omegas? Only just got it so know nothing about them yet
Thanks again

Sure RobG will be along with the right fuses to check in a while, but sounds like you've blown one :y
