I have a huge electrical problem with my stock 1989 240sx s13. My battery was completely dead when I went to stat up my car. I had it jumped but it would not hold the charge so i realized that it was most likely the battery or the altenator. At first I relplaced the battery and the car started up just fine and my head light were working but my interior, Tail, brake, and turn signals would not come on. Later on that day I decided to drive the car to see how she is running and as I was driving all my light came on, but the dash light start blinking. My turn signals still do not work. I figured now to change the altenator, so I did. STILL No luck on this electrical issue. What could this be? Do I have a short or maybe a relay problem? I NEED YOUR HELP!!!!

Your alternator fuse may be blown/loose. Open the hood right behind the battery is a fuse box, open it and its the big gray 75 amp fuse. Thats the first thing id check... Hope that helps
