Hi folks, I've got a bit of a dilly of a pickle.
I just got my 1997 K1500 back from the auto body shop where all the rust was cut out and replaced. Outer, inner rockers, cab corners, and they even ended up having to go 7-8" into the floorboards on each side. I don't have any complaints about the body work, but I have a new problem that I'm worried they may have created.
Suddenly the power driver's seat won't work properly. The body guy says he's ended up unplugging it to make sure it doesn't start a fire
My signal lights are also messed up. With the headlight switch off my left signal works, right signal turns both left and right on (like hazards are on). When the headlight switch is on, the left still works, but the right does nothing. Also, whether the headlight switch is on or off, the right signal indicator on the dash is permanently lit.
Finally, I bought the truck with an aftermarket car starter. Now the FOB doesn't work to lock or unlock the truck.
I haven't had much time to investigate, as I had to take it immediately for a wheel alignment, and supposed to be inspection to get it licensed in my area.
Anyone familiar with these glitches? Especially the signal light thing?
Is there wiring in the floorboards that he has melted/shorted/messed up somehow?
I'm not at all an electrical guy, so any help or insight on how to diagnose this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
