HELP: Indoor lights on 1993 Mazda 626 not working

Feb 04, 2005 1 Replies

Hi



Like the subject says, the battery died, I changed it, between the time I also shorted it by jumpstarting it with the cables set wrong. Anyway, I bought a 100AMP fuse and fixed that part. But now, the car starts and works fine, all the dashboad lights work fine, but the door lights / the ring around the ignition light do not work and the antenna does is not gettin any power apparently, and the radio does not accept any tapes if I tried and does not hold the time. Trust me I have no idea what happened. Man. Should I try reinstallin the battery? perhaps? I checked the fuses, I think the seem to be alite, except one the says on the fuse box as a 60AMP fuse for BTN is not there. Any ideas???


Thanks

The wiring diagrams in the Haynes manual show the courtesy lights being fed by the 'Room' Fuse (15A). Interestingly enough, the wiring diagram for a 'Typical Stereo System' also shows a line from the 'Room' fuse going to the stereo connector. Sounds like you should have a close look at this fuse/circuit.
