hi,looked,but stuffed if i can find it...my boot light isnt working any more,does any one know which fuse it is and what circuit it lives with as my power socket doesnt work either..

are they on the same circuit,and share fuses...

thanks

Check the Workshop manual, I don't have it with me at the mo', if you haven't got it, I'll check when I get home unless someone else answers you first. However, most major fuses are in the box on the right hand side of the engine bay next to the ECU, the diagram on the underside of the lid , tells you what each fuse is for. check these for a power circuit

yeah i know wher ethe fuse boxes are but even though they have nice little pictures on then,it doesnt fully explin where every thing runs and shares

Sorry I dont know I cut mine to fit CCFLs but I now need a relay to make them work

GRRRR

Had a look through the service manual, seems the pages you want are 90-44 and 90-45 (Circuit Diagrams).

On these pages it shows Front Dome light, Rear Dome light, Trunk (Boot) light and Ignition key hole light on an (apparently) common circuit.

And it looks like the boot light uses fuse #6 in the main (engine bay) fuse box. Yellow 15 amp.

But I have no clues how to read circuit diagrams, so I wouldn't go pulling any fuses until you have double checked!

mmmmmmmmmmmm ta for that....if thats the case and it lives with all those other things,there must be some thing else wrong,as the interior lights and key light al lstill work okay..it started when i tried using the power lead as a trigger to turn on the amp....globe works fine as i checked that....switch couldnt be shorted,as its only a earth switch from the boot lid..???

and where or which service manual are you refering too and where do you get it.....

(did i mention that i put a couple more blue led strips in there..the interior that is...one above the front and rear screens.....like wow ...bright blue...)

Go to the workshop manuals thread here http://www.aussiemagna.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56815

The links to the three parts of the 380 manual are in the first post.

But it's 280mb so it might take a little while to download.

KJ.

Cheers,might wait till off peak download time,might be quieter...??and i need to eat into my off peak allowance any way...thanks

dude, its 280meg for crying out loud, just down load it hehe

Could be simple as the boot light switch is stuff, need to check to see if you have voltage at the light first:)

Hey Maggie, ya found the problem yet?

I'm having the same problem as the original post, has anyone managed to solve this ???

:bump:Bump!!
