overhead light

Hey Hey!

Hello everyone, thanks ahead of time!

Just wondering before I tear my dash apart if anyone can give some clues here. Why (and I have replaced all 3 bulbs today) would the overhead lights not work, the two separate lights with buttons and the center light?

Also, the light socket near the ECM, orange and white wire, when I put the bulb into the socket, the light goes on whether the car is started, lights turned on, its always on. I unplugged the light for now till that is figured out.


thanks everyone!

Light Not Right

Make sure your ACC FUSE is OK.

If it is you have a broken wire somewhere.

You’ll have to physically trace it.

You probably have a break forward of the map lights.




The interior light “near the ECM” - trace it back to the power source.

Find out what switch is closed when it should be open.

Happy Racing!

Fog lights are not driving lights. They look doofy. Turn em off slow pokes.

How bout those nervous nellies too scared to drive without headlights on in the daytime or if there is a little rain!
