Default Just got an 84


Just finishing my 2 hour trip home!
Just picked up this mint 84 944 with 2.5 and5 speed.car was about 2 hours away from me. After checking all fluids i hit the road.i have never been in a Porsche but I have been in 70s-80s VWs, and I was surprised to see so many VW interior pieces. After my 2 hour journey with her, this is what I found out, speedometer and odometer not working, gas gauge not working, turn signals not working, horn and headlights not working. My main issues right now it's headlights and turn signals as this is my daily driver. Headlights pop up just no light. All other lights work. Hazards work just not signals.i pulled plastic cover on column and made sure connections were tight. Still no headlights or blinkers. Where should I look next? Just a side note my previous 90 jeep Cherokee xj with 4.0 and I was surprised how much harder my old jeep pulled,im definitely feeling the lack of torque in this Porsche, still a great car.
