Interior lights
Ok so i have no interior lights no dash radio glove box everything in the dash, the roof light still has power and works. the #11 fuse keeps blowing. Does anyone know what this might be and have a diagram of the wires from the fuse box to instrument radio and glove box.
Thanks
Kyle

fuse 11 does indeed feed radio, and main light switch, unplug radio or main light switch , whichever is easiest to do, install new fuse 11, check again, the main power wire to both should be a yellow wire/black stripe. fuse is 15A
I do believe my main light switch fried at one time..the housing melted, and contacts started moving around, loose.

Ok i think i found the problem the running lights don't work unless you get the headlight switch in a certain place and that switch controls all the lights in the cab so im gonna try to replace that and hopefully that will fix it i'll post back to tell

when you get the headlight switch, get a pigtail for the switch also. the plug breaks down after a while, and melts, causing all kinds of lighting issues. you will need to replace both.

It was exactly what i said i replaced the headlight switch and checked ALL the fuse's and replaces the blown ones and work just perfect. I checked the pigtail and it was fine, there was just a short inside the switch. i kinda figured cause when i switched it to running lights nothing but halfway between that and full lights the running lights came on but on full lights no running lights. plus no interior lights and the switch controls all of that.
