three little electrical questions
I found, supposedly, the buzzer relay (the one that beeps when you leave the lights on, it is a 6 blade with part no. 14036201) disconnected in the glove box. Apparently the idiot PO didn't like it or something. I would like to hook it back up because I appreciate the warning. Where does it go?
Also
Do the climate controls and ashtray normally come with a backlight? How can I change the bulbs out if they do?
Also
The front dome light doesn't work (not with the doors, or the headlight switch). I picked up a dome light with map-light-buttons off of a laredo. How the hell does it mount up? Does the headlight switch operate only the front dome light, or both dome lights? If both, I'll have to replace it. How can I test the headlight switch with a multimeter (what pins do what)?

1. the buzzer plugs in to the top left corner of the fuse block under the left side of the dash, the buzzer unit installs horizontally.
2. Yes they are back lit- Pull the instrument panel cover off, (2 screws above gauges, 1 screw above lighter, 1 screw above headlight switch.) t
2 screws for the HVAC controls. pull the HVAC control head out a little and you will see wires going into the back, turn c.clockwise a quarter turn, bulb will come out. don't know the p/n for bulbs, but they are the same as the warning lights left of the gauges. ashtray light should be visible when you take the instrument panel cover off.
3. Don't quite know which dome light your referring too, put up some pics.

its a 95 (you can look on the right unless you're on a phone). I wouldn't be posting here if it wasnt a jeep and a cherokee...
WOW that buzzer is REALLY annoying. Won't be leaving my lights on anymore, thats for sure.
For some reason the idiot light that indicates your seatbelt is undone is now stuck on, but it only buzzes when it is actually undone, any ideas on that one?
When I pull the instrument panel cover off, will that give me access to the headlight switch as well? Can anyone tell me what the pinout is?
I'll get pics of the domelights tomorow

The headlight switch is a real pain, you have to remove the lower dash cover to access the pin to push in to release the plunger, then you unscrew the mounting screw, then pull the switch down under the dashboard, not fun at all.
