ever feel like your car hates you?
my 88 DX hatch keeps shorting out the rear brake light/horn fuse. If I replace the fuse the brake lights and horn will work up until I start th car then the fuse blows again.
Any Ideas?
Does anyone have a wiring diagram?

Do you have an aftermarket stereo/tape player in your car? Cuz when i had this problem, it turned out to be that the electrical tape came off the wire for the dimmer on the back of the stereo (that i didnt hook up) , and kept hitting the metal frame of the console.
Everytime it hit, the fuse would blow.

Not my car, but my freinds 91 Laser seemed to get him 3 speeding tickets in one week.
A spun crankshaft berring, caused by a failed oil pump
oh lets see...
The hood suddenly flew up on the HW doing 80. It cracked his windshield, bent the windshield pillars, and permently bent the hood hinges.
Then some soccer mom in her SUV ran a red light and hit the corner of the car.
ummmm what else....
One day his ENTIRE exhaust just FELL OFF. We were just crusing down the road and the we heard this "clunk.....sCraPppPPPP......"
I feel so sorry for him. Considering the car looked fine when he first bought it. When he sold it the car was no better then a pile of bolts and sheetmetal.
We swear to this day that the car was possesed.
