    I had my stater replaced on my gsx and after wards my blinkers, 4ways, defrost didnt work and then all of a sudden when I turn my lights on my cluster goes crazy rpms drop to 0, car still runs tho and then my temp guage shoots all the way up, non of the interior lights work, I had the kid that replaced the starter look at it again

    He replaced my positive battery terminal and pulled each fuse out looked at it and said their all good, and now not even my radio works...?

    any idea what could be going on or whats a good and decently priced shop that could figure this out??

                Iv never changed a starter on a dsm, but on every starter iv changed, there was only 4 wires and a signal...how can you miss one?

                  no clue man I talked to another mechanic he told me its either a fuse some where or he didnt connect all 3 wires, so im hoping its a simple fix when I take it in on monday

                        aww, Im sorry, get over it.

                        and torbs answer of "sell it" doesnt really seem to help with solving an electric issue either.

                            This x3 probably just held on by one of the starter bolts.

                                Why does one pull the connector when replacing a starter?????

                                  they were checking fuses before replacing the starter is what I was told
