Wiring?

Has anyone got a wiring diagram of the map lights for a 1995 Explorer XLT? I could sure use it right now! This would be the ones on the overhead console.

Thanks.

I have a "Typical interior lighting" diagram in my service manual. What exactly do you need?

If you need the color code for that light, it is: LG/O (light green / orange). In fact, it shows all the interior lights use that wire. Do you need it for installing an alarm? Let me know, I'll try to help you out.

Thanks crooqed,

I need it to try and confirm that the circuit board is at fault. I just bought this Explorer last week and the map lights are the only thing that does not work. Apparently they come on with the doors open but I cannot see any wires in the overhead console that would do that. I just need to know the colors of the wires to the map light bulbs as well as where the ground comes from and also if the map lights work with the dome lights....sounds like a lot eh? If you have a pic it would be great but if not just let me know which wires go to where if you can...by the way all fuses and bulbs are good.

Aright, I have 2 diagrams for you. [link:us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/931a466f/bc/interior+lighting+system/__hr_courtesy+lamps+1of2.gif?bchzmk9AzwwDhC6J|cour tesy1/2] and [link:us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/931a466f/bc/interior+lighting+system/__hr_courtesy+lamp+2of2.gif?bchzmk9Aegcqk2dx|court esy2/2] I hope this helps, infact, I hope these links work!

Good luck!!

FYI!
I'm looking at some Technical Service Bulletins and its say's:

04/08/96

^ COMPASS - ERRATIC - VEHICLES BUILT THROUGH 2/1/96

^ LAMP - MAP LAMP BULB BURN OUT - VEHICLES BUILT THROUGH 2/1/96

^ SWITCH - MAP LAMP OPERATION ERRATIC - VEHICLES BUILT THROUGH 2/1/96

LIGHT TRUCK:
1993-96 EXPLORER
1994-96 BRONCO

ISSUE:
Map lamp switch and/or overhead compass function operation is irregular, and/or map lamp bulbs may burn out on some vehicles. Installation of revised parts should resolve this issue.

ACTION:
Replace the map lamp, switch, compass and wiring harness with a revised Overhead Console Kit (F67Z-78519C42-AA). Refer to Instruction Sheet # 7151, included with the kit, for service procedure.

Sorry about that, I went and deleted it from my yahoo documents. I thought you already got it. I'll put it up again when I get home from work today.
