Dome Light Fuse

Is the dome fuse under the dash the fuse for the dome light in the center of the roof?

I changed all my bulbs to LED and now the center dome doesn't work with the new bulb or old. I checked the 7.5a dome fuse under the dash and it's good.

 

Sometimes when something is out I just check every fuse in the panel. I have done it for customers before when they complained one thing didn't work, one time I found 4 bad fuses.

Initially I was going to say flip the LED bulb around because they usually only work one way, but you said the old bulb doesn't work either. You're sure the switch is on and you didn't bend the contacts out of place?

 

I flipped both bulbs around

The switch is on

The only thing I didn't do was bend the contact in...

 

Its the 7.5 i think 3 up from the bottom on the right side. I blew mine when i put in leds. If you cant get it working change the fuse.

 

Fuse is in the under dash panel. It's labeled in the cover. Most LED bulbs are polarity sensitive. Meaning they only work one way. If you have it the wrong way it will blow the fuse.

 

I bent the contact back in... reinserted bulb.... GOOD TO GO

 

I'll add the embarrassing caveat-- before replacing bulbs that you don't think work, make sure that the master switch (OFF-DOOR-ON) above the rear view mirror isn't OFF...

 

There's been several dudes on here that have fried the circuit board inside thier overhead console by installing LED bulbs. Try to search out those threads

 

Five years later, this comment is worth its weight in gold!
