96 K2500 Dome Light

[DDDDDMORGAN]

Just came home with a new to me 1996 K2500.

 

The dome light doesn't come on with the door nor with the dimmer control.

 

I've been driving a Ford for a long time so maybe it's new owner ignorance.

Drenolov, I just found a manual online and saw about the button, I braved the cold and nothing. I probably have a burned out bulb.

 

It can wait till warmer times ;-)

the auto activate when door opens is on the left side of dash. The wear down for those switches is wiggling sloppy or going cockeyed.

Would rather it stay off than on.. the fail is two ways.

 

you can try smacking that see what happens.

 

That is a surprising big circuit. Even the doors had lamps. I fixed mine all up once, looked like a circus with all the lamps working. I removed the door lamps,they were a bit much.

Well after the above advice I checked and lo and behold I don't have a switch! I think that explains it ;-)

 

It will be a fix when the weather gets decent.
