jeep wiring question
Well i posted before. When i the jeep it had no dash lights or domes. so we started to invesigate . No fuses in instrument panel and dome. So i tester out and had power to the fuse block at instrument panel. So we threw a fuse in and turned on head lights. And she started smoking under dash. And now we have no power at fuse panel at instrument spot. We put a fuse in for dome and they worked for a bit. And now they dont but fuse is good.......wtf

What year XJ?

Is it manual? The master could be leaking onto the fuse block under the dash.
|
Its a 92 and its a auto

It has power to instrument slotvin fuse box again. A little bit ago it was dead after we tried a fuse in it. Could the fuse block have a short?
|

I remember my 91 had all types of crazy things going on when my buddy wired my radio wrong.. Ex: I had dome lights when the key was set on acc ONLY but I did not even have a fuse In the dome light slot! And my dash lights were all screwy also among other very weird symptoms. For whatever reason Jeep decided to wire a lot of the dash power together through many other circuits rather than just directly like one would reasonably assume. I wish I still had my wiring diagrams for that XJ, I only got em for a 98 now. Not sure if this helps you at all but just sharing experiences.

Yeah mine worked without a fuse. They come on if i roll up pass side rear window and hold the button up....not sure where to start or even try to.....everything works except dash lights and i lose the radio light when i turn on head lights the previous owner wired up small blue lights abd set them in the cluster so i do have light. Just bugs me its not right

check the underhood light for a short
|
Underhood light works as it should

I had a similar prob. My dome would come on then blow. I took the bulb out og the dome and everything worked. My dome was bad. Not saying that is your prob but I beat my head several times trying to figure it out. Hope this helps.
