Hey guys, got a 1993 w250 singke cab 5speed. Other day i was driving and my abs and parking light will flash on intermittenly and stay on for a few seconds and then go out for about a minute or 2. This is a continuous cycle while driving. But when the lights come on the radio cuts out. And wen they go out it comes backon in demo mode as if you took the cables off the battery. So did alittle diagnosing. Checked fluids and battery and alternator connections and replaced alternator (needed to be replaced anyway). Still same thing. So i took the fuse out of the radio and took it down the road. It always seems to perform right as i shift out of second. Sure enough i shifted and lights still came on, but this time, my volts dropped to 8, speedo went alittle crazy, oil pressure read max, my wait to start light flickered. No idea what this could be im sure its another stupid wiring issue our beloved first gens are known for. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Perhaps corrosion on the fusible links at the duckbill?

Engine torquing over put a pull on the wires?

Best I have.

fusible links looked okay. This was just all the sudden. One day everything was good and next dat this happened

Check if your shift linkage or clutch arm are pinching any wires.

will do good idea. Could this have anything to do with the computer though??

I have had the duckbill look like brand new and have internal corrosion not visable by just looking at it. Don't just assume it's good by a visual check.

so is the duckbill all the wires that run over the drivers side fender well? And how would i check them?
