O.k. I have not driven my car in two months and I am ready to push it into a river.
Currently I have done several things to try to fix it but nothing helps:
I changed the alternator and cleaned all exposed electrical connections under the hood. This stopped the Idiot lights from blinking but the temp gauge still jumps around and is completely innacurate.
After I did that I would have to jump the car to get it to start, and I could let it run for half an hour and it still wouldn't start itself so obviously either not taking a charge or the starter isn't engaging correctly. Checking the voltage after letting the car run it actually has lost one volt on the battery from 12.2 to 11.1 so its not charging. But the idiot light doesn't come on when its running (it does when its off)
Seriously I hate my car, please help me!! I realy don't understand what the hell is going on.
P.S. I also have removed all of the visible orange relays and replaced them one by one with different ones (the ones I used worked) to see if it made any difference. To my knowledge it didn't.
P.P.S At the same time that I had all of these other poblems start up the temp gauge started jumping around like mad minutes after that I turned my car off and things haven't been the same since.
