Glovebox and dome light

Any electrical issues

Glovebox and dome light

by tsdinos » Wed May 04, 2005 3:03 pm

My glovebox light isnt working althought the bulb seems fine. I also checked its base for connection problems but it seems fine too. Could this be a blown fuse? If so wouldn't this affect something else too? Also is the glovebox bulb the same with the dome and boot bulb? Is it 36mm-39mm or 41mm-44mm? On ebay they advertising calibra's interior lights with 36mm-39mm bulbs but i measured mine and its slightly 45mm. What bulbs should i get?

Does anyone knows a website that lists the type of bulbs that calibras use?

I took the bulb base out and check it. Everything seems to be connected and the bulb also seems to be ok. Could this be a blown fuse? But if it was a fuse wouldnt this affect something else too?

have you checked the supply and earth?

have you swapped the bulb with say the boot light to check the bulb is working ..bulbs can look ok but still not be working.
