So my jeep is just about ready for the road again and i stumbled upon a very strange electrical issue.

When i turn on my light switch the wipers start to move. I have 1 parking light that works and the headlights/taillights dont turn on.


The only electrical thing thats been done is the howell EFI. Before this everything worked correctly.


Has anyone who's installed their own howell EFI know if that kit could even cause any of these issues??

Typically when multiple things start to go wonky or interact, you have a bad ground somewhere. Go thru and make sure all of your ground wires are intact and have continuity.

Thanks for the help guys. I solved the problem and boy do i feel like an idiot. In my haste to get this thing back together, i forgot to to tighten one of the grounding bolts that attaches from the blinker to the grill.

So i tightened the bolt and everything came to life as its suppose to be.
