I've actually had these electrical issues for a while but just never got around to fixing them. So, thought I'd ask you guys what you think. Ever since I installed my supercharger I have 2 things acting weird. First, the "low fuel" orange light on my fuel gauge stays on continuously, although the gauge itself works fine...the light is ALWAYS on. Second, my fog lights don't work any more

The headlights work fine, but when I switch the fogs on...nothing. Obviously it has something to do electrically, but do you guys know maybe more specific what I should be looking for?? Appreciate any help, THANKS

Okie...the manual should tell me where the fuses for the fogs are right?? Yes...I'm a mento girl

yes, it's almost at the back of the manual...around where you switch your light bulbs....

I'm assuming you installed a fuel pump when you put the supercharger in? It's probably just the sender screw in the pump assy if you did. Just pull it out and move it so it doesn't touch anything.

If you DIDN'T do a fuel pump (shame on you), check your fuel lines. It's possible you're loosing pressure somewhere on the fuel rail, possibly.

On stock PSI, its 100% okay to use the stock pump as long as you use 91 octane or above

heck its still fine to use the stock fuel pump on 5.5psi in Socal.

Ummm...OK no I didn't install a fuel pump, but I am running stock boost...and yes I always use 92 octane

Thanks though OK...so I checked my fog fuses and they're fine, so anyone have any other idea why? The fuel light I don't really care too much as long as the gauge works, but I would really like to get my fogs working again as I spent some $$ to buy bulbs to match my damn headlights :roll:

heehee so yes if anyone has any other ideas please let me know!!

Check the wiring behind the bumper.. you might have a loose wire...

that prolly the only thing that i can think of...

blown bulbs? a/m's are known to blow prematurely sometimes.

No, we checked them...good idea though, but yea we already checked them. I guess I'll just try see if any of the wires are loose.
