Ok, so tonight my car miraculously started up, after about 7 months of work on it, and I can't be happier, so I want to start this thread to sort out any final little problems with it.

Ok, so as I said, the cluster and the wiper switch dont light up, but my headlights work, and the headlight switch does light up.

The BAC seems to be operating all the time with the engine off, but the key on.

My coolant is full, but my buzzer is working... I gounded it to be sure it's not the wire, and the noise went away, so I think it's the sensor itself?

I can get one at Rock auto for like $14, but it's only listed for 86 87 88 model years, so would it work on a 91? It looks the same from the pics at least.

Oh yeah, and my car idles at 2000rpm, i think i read somewhere that this is not all that uncommon when stuff is out of spec, so I'm going to try to adjust the tps to see if that helps, I got an analog DVOM so it should be good I hope.
