I was driving my car saturday night, everything was working fine, I turned on the windshield wipers and they flew across the windshield, much faster than usual. I hit the rear, it went up and on the way back, the motor slung the blade off the window and it got stuck behind the car. I decided to pull over, hit my turn signal, and it started blinking in a completely erratic pattern, at the same time I noticed that the tach was jumping from 3,000 down to 1900-2300, again very eratically and quickly moving.
The car was running perfectly well at this point, so I decided to continue to my friends house since he is a mechanic who may have some insight. I pulled up and shut off the ignition, and everything died. Every electronic system in the car is now completely inoperable, form the door locks to the odometer. The only working system is the headlights, taillights, and dashboard backlight. The battery has 12.4 volts, all main fuses are in good condition, AND THE HEADLIGHTS WORK PERFECTLY so I'm losing my mind a little bit. If you have any ideas please help.
