WTF! Car went crazy on me, I can barely drive it.
I get in the car and when I start it up the display goes red and says SBC malfuction blablabla and then it goes away and everything goes normal...after that I immediately got 3 errors in the display. They are ESP, ABS and a lightning bolt and it says "display malfunction, visit workshop". I try to put the car in gear and it would not let me so I put my pen in the little hole to unlock the transmission lever and it would drive but only in 2nd gear and power steering was very weak. The speedo didn't work either but Brakes worked fine though.
It stayed like this till I got home ( drove slow as hell, took forever..lol ) and now I have the battery disconnected to see if it'll go away.
Anyone ever had this happen?

LMAO...
Anyways...I found fuse 47 to be blown. I replaced it and problem solved.
From what I've been able to find fuse 47 is for the intercooler pump. If this is correct, I just replaced it....hmmm...I'm going to have to check what I could have screwd up.

I checked the voltage and everything looked good. I don't know how old the batteries are since I just bought the car.
I put a slightly larger intercooler pump in since my oem one was broken. I wonder if it's pulling too much current and after a while blew the fuse. I also wonder if I simply screwed something up in the new plug it uses ( plug had to be cut off and replaced with a different style plug ).
Regardless, the car is working fine now.
