I have a 2004 saturn vue, V6, the one with the acura engine. It has 97k miles and drives like it did on day one. However.....I now have a problem that I need to figure out
right now and need to take it for repairs after the storm.
First, I was just drivin thru the storm (Knightdale) and water started rapidly dripping from the roof area close to the center of the front passenger door window. Where the sticker is for the side impact bag. I pulled into a gas station within 3 minutes and immediately all my interior ceiling lights came on while the switches were in the off position, and they wouldn't go off. After a few minutes I was able to turn off the back lights.
Now the front map lights won't turn off - they are the ones you tap on/off.
So, I figured for now i would pull the fuse - but which one? My problem...i recently moved and the manual is boxed away somewhere. I imagine the fuse map is in the manual -
does anyone have one and can you tell me which fuse to pull? I see a fuse box in the front passenger area but each fuse has a # and no name on it. I went on line and found a forum where someone said it is Red 10...problem....there are many Red 10-'s in the fuse box.
I guess if I have to I will have to disconnect the battery? But I hate to do this with this impending weather.
Also, once I solve this problem...
where should I take it to be looked at? Normally I would take it to the dealership ...I could take it to the old saturn dealership as the same folks still own the place the last I heard.
So, I have 2 problems, a leak of unknown origin...all areas look good and intact - from what I can see. And, now the water has seeped into the electrics. While it may dry out and be ok to drive to the dealership, I am not sure which one to take it to. I don't want to take it to an electric place first if I can help it as i know how expensive it is. While I can certainly afford to fix it, I don't want to start their first if I can fix the leak and the water will dry up in the electric area.
Sorry if I am rambling...it's been a terrible week for me of unbelievable stress and problems...and I haven't even put away my outside stuff ready for the winds nor gotten anything ready. It took me forever after work trying to gas up my car and get cash from the ATM.
Thanks for reading, I hope you all can give me some guidance
