nvinson0407 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hello my name is Nathan Vinson, im from keokuk, IA there isnt much of a car scene here except for me and a couple of my friends, at the moment I have a 1987 conquest TSi that i bought for 1400 from a guy in Davenport IA it had some vavle train noise but it wasnt much of a concern tell i started the trip back. but when i got home it got a little worse so i pulled the valve cover off and seen my timing chain is a little loose..... so a small fix. also realized that it doesnt have stock injectors last night so im gonna have to pull them off today and check them out. i do have some interesting things goin on though.... for example. my wipers are unpluged from under the hood so i plugged them in and they stay on at all times.... lol and my headlight come up fine but if i turn them off they dont go down but the light turn off heres the funny part if i hit the on switch for the light enough to engage it the go down?!?!?!? have no cluse what thats about. also my heat heating/fan gauge stay light on but dont work when the car is not started but when i start the car it doesnt light up and it blows COLD COLD on my feet only?!?!?! like i said have no clue wth is going on.... so help on that would be great.

FijiPhil Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hey Nathan, Welcome In order to fix the wiper issue.. You likely need to replace the ETACS module underneath the drivers seat. From what I understand, if a battery is hooked up backwards, the ETACS unit is usually fried. I had this issue on a car of mine once when I got it, and a new ETACS took care of it Also, you just likely need to clean the contact point of your headlight switch.
