    vq series two loom is in, rear loom modded to suit front loom plug. dash works fine, power windows and centeral locking working fine via the bcm. lights work but here is the crappy part no wipers or indicators. suppose to be a 15 amp fuse yet blows out a 35 amp fuse. and smoke is coming out of the switches.

    the trip and antenna switches around the dash are vn, two plugs on the back of the trip switch, 3 plugs on the back of the antenna switch. the loom has two plugs that come out the antenna side and 3 plugs on the trip side.

    will i need to chuck in a set of vp switches to make this work or should i just give up on wiring all together :bang::bang:

    I'd say the VQ SII will need VP switch blocks. - Have you just metled some perfactly good VN switch block?

    So you've killed an innocent VN switch block.......

    Some of the parts may still work. But then again maybe not..
