MY 2000 FIREBIRD IS HAVING ALOT OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE FUEL GAUGE DOESNT GIVE ME A READING. THE LEFT TURN LIGHTS DONT BLINK. AND THE PASSENGER HEAD LIGHT WONT RAISE WHEN IT TURNED ON. I NEED TO KNOW WHETHER THESE PROBLEMS ARE CONNECTED SOME HOW AND WHERE I COULD FIND A MANUALL WITH RELIABLE SCHEMATICS FOR THE CAR. I HAVE THE MANUAL FROM AUTOZONE BY HAYNES BUT IT REALLY DOESN HELP ME THAT MUCH WITH THE WIRE CHASING.:uhoh:

First off, turn off the caps lock.

Second, check for a broken wire going to the fuel sender.

Third, check for a burned out bulb on the left side of the car.

Fourth, check to see if the headlight motor is running on the side that isn't coming up, the gears might be stripped.

No, these 3 things are most likely NOT related.

Check ALL lights on the car, side markers and all. When the turn lights come on but don't flash usually means a bulb or an element in a dual element bulb is burned out.
