*grumble* fuse location?

Postby rain902 » Fri Jul 21, 2006 4:35 am

Okaaaay - was interfering with my courtesy lights and managed to let all the smoke escape from the fuse - it happened to take out the radio power as well.

i know where the fuse block is, and checked em - they are all fine.

anyone know where I may find the fuse for the lights/radio etc?

*hmmmpf* :shock: :shock:

if it's an aftermarket radio/CD player, it probably has an inline fuse in its power lead.......dunno about the lights but :)

Interior lights fuse (\"room\") is on the driver's side kick panel. I think you need the \"room\" fuse and the \"cigar\" fuse intact for the OEM radio/stereo connection. Lighting power for the stereo plug comes through the \"tail\" fuse.

Just yank them out one by one and you'll find the blown one eventually. :)

it's in a real prick of a spot too, you almost need to lie in the drivers seat upside down to work out what's going on there.
