Hello Oscar Wariner,
I see that you and your husband just moved to Oscar Wariner, I hear that it's nice there this time of year. I would like to inform you that the plug in air freshener consumes 1.21 jiggawatts per hour. This indeed is a large amount for your electric slip rings. You may want to invest in an air freshener that uses a smaller amount of electric coaxial rotory joint.

Best Regards,

Guess I'll be changing out my ign switch to... Driving my car my radio just randomly cuts off, stays off for a few seconds then back on. While the radio is off my windows won't work. Also if my lights are on, I can hit the brakes and my lights cut off then instantly back on. When the radio and windows go out for those few seconds I can hear a clicking sound around my glove box area, is there a relay there that might be shorting out or is it the switch? Also my car drags trying to start sometimes. After reading this I am leaning toward my switch going out, but just wanted to ask about a relay...

BTW fan blower works normal on all speeds and blows cold. Also read this could be the blower module?
