Turn signals/door lock buttons/wipers not working until ac kicks on
Turn signals/door lock buttons/wipers not working until ac kicks on
My TL started acting up a few weeks prior.
My hazards work and show up in the dash but the turn signals don’t work or show up,
My wipers can also only go full auto and the sprayers don't work.
The headlights are on but not indicated in the dash anymore.
The door locks don't work but the fob works fine.
HOWEVER, at the same time, the A/C Clutch compressor and A/C themselves don't wanna kick on until I drive for 10-20 minutes. I check and when I turn the car on the A/C compressor doesn't start spinning like its supposed to when the A/C is on.
Then everything decides to work as soon as the A/C pops on. When I start to feel cold air, Everything fires up. Sometimes if I shift a bit hard it'll make the A/C kick on.
I can turn the A/C off after that, and everything works until the car sits for more than a few hours.
All my fuses look good none are blown. I checked with a multimeter and even replaced the relay regarding the A/C clutch compressor.
Anyone else have this issue and is there a fix? Thanks

Sounds like a bad ground. I would go on the hunt through the engine bay and under the dash for grounds that are loose or corroded. The other thing to looks for is if the ECM under the dash is dirty, wet, corroded.
