Interior (middle) cabin light wiring path

Post by Jezza » Mon Sep 19, 2011 10:44 am

Hi - I was wondering if anyone can advise where the wiring for the interior light in the middle of the rear cabin goes after it dissapears down into the roof ? - I was hoping it might run down the rear pillar on the sliding door side as I was wanting to patch into it - however none of the wires in the loom running up that pillar match colours with the wires in the last connector before the light itself. I would assume the colour coding of the wiring would remain standard along a run, rather than changing between sets of connectors.

I've had a look at the wiring diagrams, but to be honest it's not helped much tracking where the wires actually run

I don't really want to have to rip out all the interior panels just yet to track down where the loom goes for this light, so was hoping someone has already been down this route and could advise

many thanks

Have you checked the sheet after the diagram itself ? It shows the position of the wiring looms within the vehicle for those circuits. As far as I can see the colours do remain the same for a given version no matter which loom IN/IN2 or F they are running in. The only bit where they differ is the wiring from the actual light module to the first connector - the colours aren't shown on the diagrams.
The colours involved are;
B- Black for earth connections
R/G - Red with green stripe for door switch connections
L/R or L/G Blue with Red stripe or Blue with Green stripe depending on version for the +12 volt line to the fuse panel.
