+1 on the ground stud under the dash on the drivers side. It corrodes and causes a lot of havoc.
The other thing is the fuse panel itself at some point becomes undependable.
The wiring in the harness is of a very high marine grade and the metal itself is plated with anti-corrosion plating. Usually the wiring is not the curlpret.
On occasion the "quick connect" terminals will become loose and sometimes in close proximity will touch each other.
It really is time to change out most of the components like the fuse panel. They look very innocent until they suddenly dead short and this car was not equipped with an "entire car" fuse like the new ones are.
