      Maybe I was not specific enough with my last post. I should have said, "Check for current flow with your ignition key in the "on" position."

      All the 2004 -2011 Aveo,Swift,Wave have two fuse boxes there all in the same place. As said, Lt side dash beside driver door. Under hood in back of the BATT.

      Has this problem been solved yet? or have you found the trouble yet?

      I'm not trying to bust your balls but what you are saying doesn't make sense. "Current flow" is measured in amps. you are not looking for amps. You are testing for a "difference of potential" measured in volts. Even with the key on to get current flow you would need a complete circuit and a load. Obviously he has no load, therefore no complete circuit. You need to troubleshoot the voltage throughout the circuit to find the break.


      So don't take this the wrong way. there is a lot of mis-information on the net.

      Yes, I erred. The test that I was proposing was to see if there was a complete circuit. If there was not a complete circuit, one would still have to determine why. It could be the fuse, a broken wire, a damaged connector, etc.

      Did we ever hear back from the originator of this thread? Was the problem solved?
