So went to junkyard and bought a used switch. Here's the weird part....Put it on and the DAMN THING WORKED. TURNES OFF THE INSIDE LOGHT. THEN all of a sudden about 4 times trying it, it quit working? And the light remains on AGAIN. Do I need to buy a NEW SWITCH from like Auto zone or something? I mean I was thinking buy a NEW switch it may work. Just scared to buy one and have it not work. It's $79.95 for a brand New switch.

I turned the switch on and off. Rolled it up and down about 4 times. It went on and off each time.

The fuel injection "spider" in a '95 is just not the best design. The poppet style valves as well as the pressure regulator like to leak which could be the problem of your rough idle. Best way to tell is to remove the air plenum and look at the upper intake manifold for burned fuel puddles and really clean areas where fuel has washed it.

I believe there are many threads on here about replacing the "spider" so you can see what is involved. Also check-out Youtube for videos.

No spare speaker huh, well if you have a weak 9 volt battery you could use it to test the door speaker. Will still need some test leads, alligator clips on both ends work great. With a test lead on each speaker terminal, connect the end of the ONE test lead to the 9 volt battery terminal, the remaining end just tap to the other battery terminal and listen for a pop from the door speaker. This will determine if the voice coil is working. So if this works then there is either a break in the wiring between speaker and radio or the radio has a dead channel.
