NotarPilot Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 My cabin map light in the ceiling is not working and I've been able to determine the hot wire supplying power is to the switch is dead. The ground wire is however, supplying power. I checked the maintenance manual and the only guidance it provides is for replacing the bulb and switch. There's nothing mentioned about the wiring, from what I could find. Question is: Does the hot wire go from the light to the switch and direct to the battery, with an inline fuse in the wire? Does anyone know how this is wired? I'm thinking of just running a new wire with a fuse in it to make things easy. Thanks, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgpilot Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 There is a fuse near the battery for power to overhead lights, front and rear. They can always be on without turning on the master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetdriven Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 It's inline glass fuse holder it's right next to the battery contactor by the battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
