Ford TempoThe Ford Tempo is an American-built two-door coupe and four-door sedan produced by the Ford Company from 1984 to 1994. It was the successor to the Ford Fairmont, and was replaced in 1994 by the Ford Contour. The Tempo was part of a rejuvenation by Ford to offer more environmentally friendly, fuel efficient, and more modern styled models to compete with the imports.
I have an '89 Tempo sedan with about 100k miles on it. The turn signals and all HVAC have stopped working. However, the hazard lights and brights work fine, as does the radio and any electrical dash component that I can think of testing. When they first stopped working, they would occasionally start working again after a few miles of driving, or after hitting a bump in the road. But if the car was shut off, they wouldn't come back on right away. Now, they don't come on at all even after driving.
Any luck figuring out the problem? My wife's car just lost both her heater and signals. Her's is a '90 Tempo. I've checked wiring and sure can't see anything that might be loose.
