After fiddling around with the overhead lighting pod (looking for a temperature sensor that wasn't there...) I no longer have any interior lights, in the cabin or the boot. I disconnected the three-position slider switch as part of my master plan but I cannot reconnect it — there doesn't seem to be anything behind the slot to reconnect it to. I would happily take the whole pod off and have a good look inside, but having undone a couple of screws I still couldn't get the thing off the roof. I don't want to pull too hard in case there's something in there I don't know about. Is there an art to this?

Getting the car out of the garage after dark is quite fun these days.

Cheers, all.

Ah, I did the same thing.

There are the two screws, then see at the sidie of the smaller bulbs there should be two clip like things that go into the headlining. Just push a screwdriver between these and the plastic, should relise it. (Hopefully that makes more sense with it in front of you.)

Also, if you have done what I think you have done, check this thread out.

Ah! Good job I didn't pull too hard, then...

Many thanks.

:eek:

I've just looked at that other thread. Oh dear. Yes, that's what I've done. Looks as though I'm in for a hard time.

Incidentally, I've lost the map reading lights, too, which is a puzzle. I can't imagine how I could have blown a fuse — maybe the metal slider thing wandered around and shorted on something.

Yeah, it took me (Ok, my dad) a while to get it back together.

Regarding the lights blowing, could be you knocked a connection, but otherwise no idea I am afraid.
