interior light removal Disco 1

(1/2) > >>

fram:
Hi guys just fitting the cb today and as its above the drivers head, I am going to splice the wires into the front interior light, but i cannot get it out of the headlining, I have a Disco 1 with sunroofs and its the interior light with the motion sensor unit in front of it, which by the way just pulls out.
Any one got any ideas
Thanks fram

Mace:
I'm sure the WHOLE console has to come out. The light is attached behind the plastic surround.

fram:
O.K. I have done it, you remove the plastic 'window' and there is two screws behind the bulb. Problem is I wired up the cb into the live and earth and it just blows the fuse straight away. Grrr...!! if anyone knows the way round this it would be appreciated.
Thanks Fram

POTASH:
the interior light is wired for only about 3-5 watt bulb i think, could that be the problem, just a thought, or am i being stupid :?:

Wanderer:
Fuses are there to protect the wiring.

The wiring may not be capable of handling a CB instead of a light and could be a fire hazard if you uprate the fuse to stop it blowing.
