Glove-box Light
-> 206 Problems

#1: Glove-box Light Author: iainlovatt PostPosted: Sat Jun 04, 2011 2:08 pm

Right installed the light and installed the sensor, plugged them in,
Nothing,
Had a brief look at fuses and it would seem they are all on one loom and so one fuse, this fuse is the main interior light as well as other electrics,

Any ideas people?
will uploading a pic of my fuse box help?

cheers Very Happy

Have you tried it with the ignition on as they only work with it on?

Pull a line from the cigarete-lighter socket.
You will need to take-off the centre section so you can get to the wires underneath.
Disconect battery first and make a good job of it.

Yep. But it's worth it.
If yours is non-multiplex you can do it so it works even with ignition off.

LX is the poverty spec. I have a fairly good spec one so thought it would have them.
