Speaker Clicking Noise And Dash Lights Not Working


hi, my speakers have recently started making a very annoying clicking noice. it started out very low but has begun to get louder. It only does it when the car is running (its perfect when the car isnt) and i might be crazy but it seems like it stops when im turning even around slight bends. oh and it also makes the noise no matter where the volume is, including muted. Thanks for any input!

oh and one more thing, lastnight i got in my car and no lights that go on when i put on the running lights would go on, just headlights, so i figured a fuse blew, found it, changed it, the lights work again, buuut all the dash lights wont go on now, so just wonderin what it could be, thanks again!

check your wiring for a short some were, (power thats been grounded), f you have bare wire in there swinging around and it hit metal that cold be why your fuses are poping and may evenm fix your radio

Maybe the dimmer switch? Not specific to the Mustang but those fail on a lot of cars. That may explain the blown fuse and the dash lights not working now because that dimmer is common to both. Worst case is you may have a short in the dash light area which burned up the switch and blew the fuse so just replacing the dimmer switch may not fix it and you could burn up another one, again, that is worse case. Find some wiring diagrams and track it down, without that, all we can do is guess.

Opal, your link is to a fox body diagram, is the 95 he has the same?
