I like the explorer alot. I want to drive it but work a 4-12am shift at work. I bought the truck two weeks ago as a back up and family hauler. When I bought the truck it had several jumper wires in the fuse box. (NOT GOOD)
I eliminated all of the jumper wires (two I believe were for an aftermarket amp). The third was for the dash lights and tail lights.
My problem is as follows.
None of the interior lights work.
Dash lights and tail lights are wired together. None of them work.
All fuses seem to be find swapped them just in case. Fuses under the hood seem to be fine as well.
I went to a scrap yard and pull a headlight and dimmer switch. Changed them.
Got the lights working again, for about 1 day then they went out I noticed that the headlight and dimmer switch got very hot.
I swear I heard the fuel pump kick on with the headlight switch though I am 99% certain that the illumination wire is hooked to the accessory wire on the radio.
Where else can I look?
