Electrical Gremlin w/int. lights?? 700 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be JRamboIV on  Fri Aug 10 03:56 CST 2001 [RELATED]

This is a very odd thing. When I first got my car (780) the interior lights didn't work. It kept blowing fuses. I took the overhead light apart and found a bit of corrosion making a bad situation. I cleaned it and the light works.

However (and you know that was coming), when I open the drivers door only the footwell light will come on. the overhead will work normaly if you switch it on, but not on the door setting. The passenger door works just fine, all the lights come on normaly.

Ummm... Could a wire be disconnected? I don't see how the footwell light comes on fine but not the overhead??? This has perplexed me for a while, but I didn't want to waste any of the vast knowledge that is given so helpfully by those on this board.
