Default 1JZ swap....fuse box question

I just got done swapping in a 1jz in my car and am having problems with the head lights, tail lights, and a/c.

My headlights and tailights aren't working so my mechanic said he wired them up to my parking lights? (i think..he's on vacation) And he also said my a/c wasn't working, so he did something where its always on when i turn my car on, but if i want it off i have to dis-connect a wire in the fuse box.

my question is, am i having problems because of the fuse box wiring? I used a soarer harness and my stock fuse box and not sure if he wired it right. My mechanic is pretty old so I dont know if he over looked something with wiring . and he wont be back from vacation for another week and would like to solve this before he gets back... thanks for any help.

You shouldn't be having those issues...


On my swap (95) everything works 100% stock.

I think your mechanic goofed up on the wiring somewhere....

If it helps, all that needs to be done is extending those two body plug harnesses around 24" and moving a couple wires around if you are a 95+.

I used my stock fuse box with no problems, so no you dont have to use a soarer fuse box.

PM me if you need more help....

Sounds like your mechanic got a little ancy and started splicing and connecting. Only way to diagnose is get under there and figure our where wires are run.
