Ok first day with the 240 running with the new SR, runs great by the way. So i have indiglo gauges and they have been flickering here and there... i'm on the highway and bam they go out, now the tach doesnt work, nothing on the interior will work, lights turn on but wont flip up, wipers, chime, console lights... nothing. I checked all fuses on the interior fuse box and they are all good, can someone point me in the right direction for troubleshooting this?

The only fuse thats working is the audio... so i wired the gauges in there and they light up.. the fuse that they were in before its metal where the fuse plugs into was stretched so it was a loose connection, thats why they were flickering... could i have shorted out a relay? BC no other fuse in that whole box is getting power.

Your interior lights have constant power so there is no relay between them and the battery. I think it must be a fuse or fuse link in the relay box.

Sounds like your ALT fuse is gonna go out or possibly is already gone!!! check on it is the box that is right on top of your battery it says "ALT"
