Interior dome light - NC

Postby ilovemassageparlours » Fri Jun 03, 2016 10:14 am

Hi all,

Does anyone know if the NC interior Dome Light operates on its own fuse?

Someone bumped my car yesterday and noticed the interior dome light stopped working. Will replace the bulb to see if that fixes the issue afterwork but
unsure which fuse the bulb is also running on.

Thanks!

If your NC is fitted with Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system

If any of the following occur, the DSC system will need to be reset.
Negative battery cable disconnection
Steering angle sensor connector disconnection
Removal of the 15A ROOM fuse or blown
Wiring harness disconnection between battery and steering angle sensor connector
If your car's system needs resetting the DSC warning light will come on and the DSC OFF light will be flashing while you are parked up.

No DSC light = probable blown bulb

I think it's the "Room" Fuse which also protects other lights e.g. boot light. See pages 8-34 and 8-38 of the owners manual.

Yep replaced the fuse,

Thanks all.

Just got the car a few days before this happened as well.
