Hi all. I've had my 2010 S 4x4 6 speed for about a year, and no real issues whatsoever, with the exception of the following. I swapped out the stock DE3175 bulbs for LED equivalents, for enhanced outputs. All were great on these for a couple months, with the exception of the rear cargo light--the fake spring to make the connection kept falling out. I finally got around to swapping a DE3175 back in for the rear cargo. When I put that in, I noticed neither the main or cargo light would illuminate (I do not have a map light.) I went to check the fuse, and the previous owner must have put a 20A in, as I noticed it was supposed to have a 10A. I swapped in a 10A (the 20A looked fine.) I still can't get either light to illuminate. I have a fuse tester, the 10A is good, and 2 new DE3175 bulbs installed, and nothing. I don't appear to be getting any power to the light fixtures (I assume it's 12V.)

Any ideas where else to look? Is there another fuse, other than the 10A "room light" fuse that could control the circuit. I went through all other electronics, and they seem to function fine, which leads me to believe the issue is solely on the interior lights circuit.

TY!
Brad

Get a 12 volt circuit tester. Find out if you are getting power. I have had weird issues with my 2013 interior lights, I feel like the switches are inferior. I do have LEDs installed, and sometime I have to turn the switch completely off or the lights will maintain a weird glow. Any woo, check for power, could also be a bad ground. Look for any damage to the fixtures, headliner , etc. That might indicate wiring or Connectivity concerns.
