Sorry, the crystal ball is out for polishing this week and I am fresh out of tea leaves. Please indicate the year and model of your car.

I think he has an 87 924s. Thats what it says under his name anyway.

Sorry, never look under the username.

Check the wiring around the fresh air fan (back of engine compartment)

Also look for a single wire coming off of your AC compressor - the insulation cracks and if it makes contact with the frame or the engine, voila, a short.

I dont even see a wire to the A\C compressor. Do you know what color it shoud be or where it comes through the firewall or where to dissconect it intirely any thing would be help full. im having a hard time finding a wire diagram that is correct they are all for the older 924 or the 944 but not the 924S
