Winter is coming... and squirrels sought refuge in my engine bay. I don’t think they were there for too long, but they chewed up the handle of my battery, a small(.5” wide) portion of ground wire. Wire was exposed but after extensive investigation I can’t see any copper was cut or removed.
Passenger low beam -No signs of life
Passenger turn signal - rapid green arrow on instrument panel; outside -no signs of life.
passenger drl and high beams - working.
Drivers side low beamworking
Drivers turn signal- working.
drivers High beam - not working
Drivers Drl - working.
The engine will stall when high beams are turned on.
First thing I did was buy a new battery, so it should be...new.
I unbolted ground wires at the three points I could find. I then sanded paint off and reattached.
I swapped a few relays (left headlight with right headlights), and there was no change in behavior.
From what I can tell from searching it looks like a new “computer” is needed. Anyone have any other ideas before I make the appointment to have an electrical gremlin diagnosed? I’m not looking forward to that as I have not had any good experiences with local service departments.
