RE: [DML] Electrical problem

Ed, Weird things happen like this, Dirty contacts on the relay's or even
dirty wiper action in the ignition switch it's self can cause these
problems. The relay that might cause this would not be in a relay kit. It
would either be the main relay or the accessory relay in most cases. Both
are #102 in the diagram, but in your case with the radio and the blower
motor, those work off the accessory relay.

Weird one this morning. Got to work and turned the key off and removed it.
The sound from the radio became scrambled (yes it should have gone off when
the key was turned off). It reminded me of streaming a video clip on from
the web when the signal looses sync then the sound goes wacky. It must be
an origional radio since it has DMC on the label.

Other symptoms include the fan (internal for AC) stayed on and internal dash
lights stayed on too. I reinserted the key and turned it back to on. The
radio sound and everything else started acting normal. Turned the key off
and radio, dash lights, and fan stayed on. Turned the key on and off again
and everything shut down.

So I figure it is either a relay somewhere or the ignition switch. I have
done the relay upgrade and my lock module is removed (it failed and I
haven't replaced it yet since I am saving for a Lockazilla w/launcher).

Sorry if this is an old issue but I didn't know what to search for in the
archive.

Thanks,
Ed
