Power to the orange wire? switches ground the circuit

Re: dome light no werkie!!!!!!!!
 

orange wire? the one going to the light, or some place else?

Re: dome light no werkie!!!!!!!!
 

Check the wires under the driver's door jab. Years of vibration, small rocks and such can wear through the wires and break them. Or create a short and blow the related fuse.

pull the sil plate in the bottom of door opening? which fuse controls these lights??

I put a volt meter on the light and was getting .3 volts at the light.

Re: dome light no werkie!!!!!!!!
 

Yes. I had a dome light fail in a past vehicle and the cause was a hole in one of the wires under the plate.

Not sure on which fuse. One that is hot all the time.

Should have 12V. As kwmech mentioned, light is hot all the time and the door switches close to ground when the door opens.

Needs to be battery voltage at the light 12v +.. you have a broken wire or fuse out. Trace it from the fuse block. Should be an orange wire coming from the fuse block and going underneath the floor mat

thanks to all yall!! i have a path now!

Re: dome light no werkie!!!!!!!!
 

orange and white wires broken from some hack splice job, got them fixed and low and behold there was light, what are the yellow and brown wires for that run along the same path??

Re: dome light no werkie!!!!!!!!
 

That sounds like the color code for factory speaker wiring. Yellow & brown for left rear. Over on the other side you'll likely find light & dark blue wires for the right rear speaker.
