The Hoff Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Wow, I was just about to post the same question!! Same problem here, side lights and license plate bulbs are not working but non are blown. Checked all the fuses in the footwell and next to the battery but nothing is blown? Driving me nuts!!!! Edit: Mine is an 05 plate roadster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez21 Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 Hya, found it around 8.30 in the pitch black. There is another fuse box behind the battery, under the plastic scuttle panel that touches the window. It looks like a blocks of flats, mine was covered in muck so could not see the fuse layout on the top. Its a pain to remove the cover. You have to remove the plastic panel that the battery cover clips onto. Even more of a nightmare to get back on!! What a relief when i found it - i nearly cried!! oh and there is a spare fuse in the drivers footwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hoff Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Well I found the said fuse block and yes it had blown but replacing it didnt help as it just blew again. Think it must be something to do with the Kenwood stereo I installed as it was fine before that. Need to start taking apart the dash again now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hoff Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Turns out that the connection I thought was ground (checked: 0 ohms to chassis) actually is the side light feed and goes high when the side lights are tuned on which means its the display dimmer for the stereo. Guessing that the stereo takes the ground from the ariel connection - will hook something up soon as I am without the head unit at the mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez21 Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 At least you know the problem and its not a fault finding exercise! That fuse holder should be shown in the handbook!! Hope you fix it soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
