1993 ford explorer sport
Ok to start off I have a 1993 ford explorer sport 2WD v6.
Yesterday day I drove through the desert and when I got home
every thing was fine. When my sister goes to start it all the electric parts
went dead like I had blown a main fuse or relay so I disconnect the
battery for 30 sec and removed the 2 top left relays.(they were elect control relay and abs relay)were there is a clicking noise comming from regardless of what ever relay is in the spot. But now when the car is off the battery light flicks on and off with a clicking noise in sync and I have no clue why that's happening, then my turn signals do not work but my haZards do it's pretty weird. Also abs light is on but I think that's cause the abs relay is out. That's all that's been happening. Please help and thanks in advance.

Sorry if typingand puncuation is bad I only have my iPhone right now.

Also I did check all fuses under the hood and under dash; does anyone have the diagram for the fuses under the dash? Thanks again

I have seen that kind of behavior caused by a bad connection between the battery post and the cable. I'd probably start by checking the battery cables, make sure the connection is clean and tight, make sure the cable isn't overly corroded, and have the battery tested to make sure it isn't on its way out.
 






yea it started acting better when i kinda cleaned the post but i just bought the battery not to long ago, maybe a month ago. but yea that was my next step because the battery gauge alwasy used to be on the A of the NORMAL now its on the R. i will be sure to do that then ill let you guys know what happened. thanks MrShorty
 






If you have universal clamps they will get dirty where the cables are clamped on, even though look clean. Had that happen a more than once.
 












Hello every one. Thanks for u help. I fixed it. I cleaned the battery post then rechecked the fuses an there was one loose the circle blue one under the dash and that got rid of the battery light. Put the relays back in and no clicking and abs light is gone. Thanks for all ur help guys really apreciate it
