Dome light wiring question

Hi

My dome light in my 1966 F100 is not working, I have changed the bulb. I do not have a wiring diagram, so is this fused or just straight to the headlight switch?

Thanks

Jim

On mine the circuit is ground to one bulb contact, other contact to fomoco marked black lead with male bullet connector straight to female bullet connector at headlight switch. There is no fuse between the switch and the light. Wiring diagrams don't show one either.
