    ^ good stuff.

  • Sick build.
  • whoa this thing is sweet
  • woooo hoooo wedge is running agian.
    i determind what my problem was , i had a junk fuse box that was back feeding the system and making the dash lights come on with out the key in the ignition .
    also my main relay stoped working sometime durring the car being down .
    i replaced both of those after taking out my harness and checking every wire

    now i just have a few check engine lights to fix and dawedge will be back on the road
