Was trying to get my dome light working properley & I think I might have popped something somewhere
Things that are not working are - interior lights,windows,radio,central locking & the car will turn over but not start..have checked the fuses and relays and they seem ok....any ideas??

Was trying different combinations with the wiring trying to get the spotlights to work after the doors had closed & the interior light went out.

Look at your fuse i know thats what it is as once the roof light isnt working your car will not start.

so look for the fuse in the fuse box for the roof light and you will find it will come back to life.

try to test the fuse with a test light rather than just looking at it. i have had them look ok but have just blown and you can't really tell by looking at it.
