Thanks Paul. I've tested all the fuses - those related and unrelated
since I find the electical system confusing at best. I yearn for the
days when everything just have wires and fuses and relays. Anyway,
I've tested everything I could think of without success. I'm thinking
it could be a relay but I'm not sure of which one to check. If no one
can help on this forum then I think I will attempt to move the relays
around until something happens. Just hope it isn't bad. Of course
there's always the dealership.
