The electrical gremlins have taken up residence in the Volvo, along with the spiders. I seem to have a short associated with my headlights, as well as a poor connection at the fuse terminal on that circuit. After much trial and error, and about 10 blown fuses, I think I have isolated the short to my dashboard rheostat - or at least the wire leading there. This makes some sense since I did do a lot of work under the dash last winter.
My tail lights are out, but signal and brake lights work. Have to sort that out and I'm hoping it is just dirty connections.

Just took the cover off my Mazda. Four years of use and it is about shot. The material has gotten brittle and has cracks.

Congratulations jsenclosures!
Also thanks for doing some great work to my car this past Sunday. Haven’t had a problem since.
-got the serpentine belt replaced
-TCT replaced
-VTEC solenoid gaskets replaced
-spark plugs and coil packs inspected.
-diagnosed some issues with my soft top
Definitely a great recommendation. Looking forward to doing a valve adjustment soon, as well as changing out those cracked coils packs.
