Alright everyone, I screwed up big time…I was working in the fuse box under the hood and I did not have the battery disconnected (in my defense, I was looking for a lead that is “hot” on when the engine was on…)
I somehow managed to create an arc between the slot marked “Offroad LP” and the side of the truck. Best I can figure it, this slot is for a solenoid for roof lights and there is no fuse between this point and the battery. Without a full electrical schematic, I do not know what wires I may have fried or welded together.
Everything still seems to work except for the headlights…Now I only have what appears to be my DRL’s at night. There is no subtle difference in the brightness of my lights when I toggle the headlights off and on at night. All marker lights still work and everything else functions normally.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been kicking myself since I heard the 'SNAP' of a closed circuit with no resistance and need some help!
Well sparky you've got some chasing to do. The relay locations are here: http://www.fjccentral.com/tech/F_Relay_Locations.pdf, starts on page 3. Almost all of the lighting circuits run in parallel of that same circuit. Time to get out the multimeter.
KD7NAC_07FJ is spot on. You are going to have to go through the whole thing and even if it works "now", you may have some fused/melted/screwed up wires that will need to be replaced before you drive out into a swamp 50 miles from civilization and play with your FJ.
Just take it one circuit at a time and be methodical but make sure it's all back to 100% before you take it off road.
