When the weather is hot with the sun beating down the car won`t start and radio, keyless entry, power windows, power locks, radio, and power seat wont work. After the sun sets everything functions again. Have you checked to see if the headlights function when the problem occurs What I am trying to figure out is if it is a problem between the main

connections between the battery and the fuse block(s), or some other component down the line. It sounds like the main connections between the battery and fuse block(s) are probably OK. That would usually lead us to the ignition or circuits, but since the AC fan & wires work, that adds a twist. If you look at the schematic below, it shows the starting circuits, and the IGN E fuse (at the top left). This is the main part of the circuit that gets power when the key is in either the Run or Start position. Everything else comes from the battery. Let me see if I can track that down a little more. What I am suspecting is that there is some loose connection in the underhood fuse block, perhaps some corrosion in the fuse sockets that are there, based on what you have told me. If you don`t have meter, I would take a look at the underhood fuse block to see if you can observe anything obvious such as any loose fuses or wiring in that area. I think what you will be doing, while it is hot, is checking the voltage at various fuse in the underhood fuse block for power. It could also be that one or more of the connections at the bottom or side of the fuse block has a problem. Here are some schematics I have gathered so far. I have not traced each of these down yet, but I do see that the front wipers get their power from a different fuse block (rear) than the front one. I will be hunting down the horn & AC fan to see how they are different,...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
