How does one replace interior overhead lights?

It is important to always disconnect negative battery terminal before doing any electrical work (safety issue since airbag can go off and as you found out, fuses can blow). Anyway, the fuse box is usually located near or above the hood latch lever on front driver's side dashboard console. Sometimes on the left side in front of door panel. A plastic square or rectangular shape plastic door covers it. Remove the door for access. There should be a diagram on the backside of door panel showing what fuse does what. They generally pull straight out. You can also simply check them all removing ONE at a time and look for a break in the middle or burnt spot, replace it back to its socket and move to the next one. When you find the bad one, replace it with one of same amp number (stamped on fuse end). Finally, remember to hook the neg. battery terminal back up when done.

Sounds like a bad fuse block

Could be two problems,bad switch driver door[blinking],could be four way switch[clicking].

If you're talking about the map lights (2 lights in between driver and passenger)

If you have just the map lights, just pull the whole assembly out. Don't worry about anything breaking, just pull it down, just not at an angle or anything. It easily snaps back into place after. Bulbs can be removed once you have it out.

If you have an overhead console, you remove a screw towards the front of the overhead console Then just pull. If you're talking about other interior lights, let me know I'll let you know how to remove it.

If that clock is digital read out lights you might have to replace whole clock if not you will have to take dash apart to get to it,Overhead should have visable screws to take out to release lite cover,

either you have a door switch thats stuck or bad,suggest until you figuer out which,remove the bulb from interior lighr that stays on,a push button may have gone bad or simply stuck in on position. removing the bulb will stop the battery drain,but will have no inside light from that bulb when you remove it. the plastic cover on that light should just pop out with a straight screw driver when pryed open from one side or other of plastic cover. look for an indentation or slot on side of plastic cover to remove that cover. hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com

Typically the overhead light is fused on the same circuit with the other interior lights. If the other lights are working than I would bet the bulb burnt out. The plastic cover can be carefully popped off with a small screw driver to access the bulb.

There may be a dome light override switch that keeps the overhead light off when the doors are opened. Consult owners manual or see dealer.

slide the rubber boot up and check the wires in the hinge of the doors. I will bet anything that the wires are broken. that was what was wrong with mine. just splice them back together and everything should work fine.

Sounds like a fuse issue. check your panel for popped accessory fuse.

the overhead light issue may be the door close switch
