    PLEASE HELP I have faulty lights


    Hello
    I am new to this site and having recently purchased an 91 audi coupe simply because i like the style of it, i have come across a few minor problems,

    1 - my reverse lights dont work nor do my fog lights
    2 - my fuse box is somewhat misleading
    3 - I know the location of the fuse box but it specifies theres 31 fuses and I cannot find number 19 to 30 in the fuse box is there a panel somewhere else...

    first thing to check is disco lights. take the light boards off the rears and check the connections where the plugs attach to the metal of the board. if they're corroded (great chance they are on a '91) you need to clean them up if at all possible or even better... get a good set off a car being broken. the water/corrosion will short out the connections and play havoc with all your lighting. I had my indicators going on when I braked at one point.

    I'm trying to think about the fusebox issue. Might have to go take a look unless someone answers first

    good luck. and welcome. oh yes.. www.audifans.net is also a great forum for non s2s

    cheers

        The fusebox is weird alright... http://www.s2central.net/electrical_intro.html

        Look at bottom left of that page for outline of 1991 fusebox... It changed circa 1992 as well to confuse things further.

        I've made a start on some fuse info - lucky for you on 1991 Coupe as well - this isn't complete yet, but should get you started looking in the right place
