so, i had this power draw on my rex. it was a pretty mild one. fixed it for the most part.

i checked all my fuses and connectio ns and stuff. but it turns out it looks like theres a connector by the fusebox under the hood that was shorting out. when i hooked the battery back up and everythin g, my radio wouldnt come on. my cigarette lighter doesnt work either. and my clock doesnt keep track of time when the car is off.

the fuse is fine, all connectio ns are fine...

could it be a bad relay?..

i need help

The cigarette lighter, radio, and clock have switched power through fuse #17 in the under dash fuse box. If the fuse is fine and you are getting power at it, you have a break in a wire.

Yeah I figured out the problem earlier today. Turns out when we were checking fuses he put it back in the wrong spot. It was that fuse.

Pretty weird it goes through the lighter relay though?
