GingerFlame Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Does it not get a little annoying flashing all the time? Or does it just flash every other time it's switched on like some do? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel97 Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Well iv skewed my interior light up and it's either blown the switch thingy? Because it don't come on with the doors anymore Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Check the door switches one by one & check you get the door open light/warning on both doors bonnet & boot Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel97 Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Iv tested the actual light there's no power coming to it Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 The interior light operates using a switched earth as far as I know. So it should have 12v+ constant then the switched earth in the door switches Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Have you checked your fuses? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel97 Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Yeah their all fine Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 The horn occasionally shares the same fuse as the interior light. Check that Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 How have you tested that there's no power to the light? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel97 Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Dads a mechanic and he's got some live testy thing. (I'm good with this, not!) he tested the wires that come into the light Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Fair enough Its a multimeter [emoji14] Have you checked the horn fuse? Have you tried it with both doors and the boot? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel97 Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Yup no power at all just the interior light tho because the boot light still comes on Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 It's unlikely that both door open switches failed at the same time... It's also unlikely, although possible.. that all the flashing of the light has either damaged or put the GEM (General electrical module) into a sulk The GEM is like a little ECU that controls all the fades of the interior lights, coming home lights, AC, heated screens etc Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 It's not cheap if it's dead.. although I doubt it is as I'd have thought you'd have warning messages pop up about random things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel97 Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Ah sugar. Said something about melting the relay?? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Does the light fade or click on and off usually? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerFlame Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 So it does switch on? Meaning you must have power? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
