I am finally in the process of putting my 914 back together and am almost done. I swapped fuse boxes from the stock to a JWest unit. However, during the process some of my labels fell off. Here is what I know. It appears that everything works except for the following:

My driving lights all work but my brake lights do not
My wiper motor does not work
The Emergency brake warning light stays on at all times
With the ignition in the "on" position the e brake warning light and the hazard light next to it flash even with the hazards off.

What have I screwed up? It almost seems that I am missing a cluster of wires for the output on the number 8 fuse. But everything seems to have a home.

Frustrated and lost and so close to being back on the road.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Sounds like some of the wires were not placed in the proper locations on the new fuseblock. You need to determine which wire goes to which component and hook it up properly on the fuseblock. It will probably require an ohmmeter and long leads to verify each wire with the factory wiring diagram, then check it with the J-west instructions as to where its located. The aftermarket fuseblocks are not configured like the factory stock fuseblocks, J-west uses the adapter terminal as I recall to fit more wires on one terminal so you need to be accurate.
