My 76 914 has a couple of electrical problems that where covered on the board but I would like to go over them. I do not have power to either side of Fuse 8 with ignition on or off. I have checked them with a meter.
My wipers, radio, defrost fan, and horn do not work. In reading posts someone said to wiggle fan relay J-13 but I do not know where that is. I have shown a picture of my dropped fuse panel.

Another problem is that the turn singles work but the green light stays on when the turn singles are not on. So when the car is running, the green light is on till you put the right or left single on and then it blinks. Clay Perrine Porsche shop in TX did the Checking of my car before I bought it and they said it needed a different relay. I tried a couple of used ones and also changed the one in the rear trunk near the center lock but it did not fix it. The Flasher that I changed out in the picture is Gold in color.

So please look at the picture and see if you can five me some ideas where to start.

Thanks for your help as always.
