No curtesy lights working on truck.

[Ritchison07]

Since the day ive owned my truck the interior lights have not worked. The bulbs look good in the foot well, new light in the dome and cargo as well. My cigarette lighter doesnt work either. Dash lights work though. Any idea on how i can go about fixing this? Fuses are all good. First thing i checked before i replaced bulbs.

sorry this isn't much help but you could try the link . it has a ton of wiring diagrams. its probably a wiring issue or i could simply be your dimmer switch.

mine are the same way. only the lights under the dash come on with the doors open. the center light has power at all times (orange wire) but im guessing the ground (white wire) has a short or something. the lights on the side of the dome light use a separate ground and they work just fine. i was thinking about running a wire from the ground on the underdash lights up top to the dome light to complete the circuit

will the lights come on when you turn the gauge lights all the way up? if so the door jamb switchs are bad

These are a ground switch lights. mine was the same way pull the headliner and trace the white wire your problem will more than likely be there..

not to be a smarta## but is the dome override button pushed in on your headlight switch? i did that one day and took me a week to figure it out lol
