Hello,

My 95 GS300 was broken into last year and they took the in-dash screen. They basically ripped it out along with the A/C controls as the screen was attached to them. When I got my car back from my mechanic (he went to a junk yard and got the stock radio and A/C controls), I found that I was unable to control the temperature of the A/C, you can either put it on 65 or 85, nothing between, same with the fan, you can either put it on the first setting or on full-blast.

What's worse, I was turning onto my friend's street and everything cut off, after trying to start it again (wouldn't even crank) I had to push it. After doing that for a bit, I tried starting it again, and it worked.

Obviously there's some sort of issue with the wiring that is out of the scope of my mechanics ability, if anyone can point me to someone in the DFW area that can help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it.

This is just the first step in trying to restore it, I need to get some frame damage looked at, and I need the whole interior gutted as well, so if you can refer me to some places that would be greatly appreciate too.

Thanks in advance!

The exact thing happened to me a few years back. Car was broken into and stereo was ripped out. AC was either 65 or 85, and the car was never the same. Ended up being the wiring underneath the carpet on the passenger side of the car. It was burnt and tore up.

Thank you so much, this will really help out a lot. Currently I can't even get it started, alternator and battery are fine, so there must also be a short some where.

I had the same problem. Ended up replacing battery, alternator and tps. Got it to start for a bit until it started messing up again. But goodluck hope its nothing too serious!

Good luck man, unfortunately you will have to spend time (or pay someone) to go through your dash/interior wiring harness. I wanna bet that some of the ripped up wires were not routed properly... wish i could be of more help....
