Hello again guys,  
 
I have this new problem, when ignition is off the interior lights do not work. when I start the engine and open the door for instance, interior lights work. I read something about a relay, R16, so I changed it, not working. But noticed something, my F36 fuse was blown, so I changed it. Now interior lights work, but I also have the trip and fuel computer on as well as the lights for oil and battery. I don't know what to say .... but ... HEEEELP

Try checking the battery side fusebox for any dampness. Moisture can get in if the cover isn't on properly or the battery cover is missing.
 
Do you have a battery cover ?  Smiley

yeah, I have a battery cover, and the fuse box cover is in perfect condition, what else can be wrong?

JC asked those questions because dampness in the fusebox can cause a multitude of problems. If the drain holes in the bulkhead panel,readTHIS are not kept clear of leaves etc water will build up UNDER the fusebox. Make sure the area is dry. There are similar holes on the other side of the car by the main fusebox but that panel is not removeable.
