Default Electrical Problem

Gentlemen,

I have an electrical problem with my vehilce. The fuse that's connected to my A/C and radio (head unit) keeps blowing. Recently, I had the a/c compressor and related components replaced and the *******s made water leak inside the car. Let me know if any of you have suggestions.

Thanks,
Kareem

I couldn't tell you what's wrong with your car, but I'm pretty sure it can be traced to the shop that worked on it. Take it back and demand that they fix it!

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunatly, the shop that I went to are a bunch of hacks and I'm getting ready to sell the car. I hoped that this shop I took the car to today could have gotten the job done. Guess I'm screwed.

Regards,
Kareem

Since the shop let some water leak into the interior of your car, maybe you should park your car in the sun for a day to let it all evaporate. Then it might stop shorting out.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I no longer think the moisture is the problem, because it's been a while since the water thing and it's all dry over there now. Also, I took it to a shop yesterday and they got the A/C running, but the idiots put the wrong fuse in the socket. I only realized that, because the fuse blew again on my way home. I was pissed when I saw that.

P.S. I decided not to sell the car, because it's not financially smart.
P.P.S. I'm in Tallahassee, FL for law school.

Regards,
Kareem
