Hey, so I had my navigator for 3 years now and I could never get the interior lights to come on at night. Only the headlights come on but everything else is off.I've checked all the fuses in the Drivers kick panel and under the hood nothing! I also messed with the sensor Located on the top of the dash, took it apart and everything but im guessing that one only controls the headlights so wheres the one that controls the Interior lights?Are there any other fuses some where else?This is been Driving me crazy!!!!

Well my brother has an expedition and I switch the light switch with mines and that didn't do nothing. I'm guessing it does have a lighting control modual?

My manual is for a 99 but the logic may be the same. Will the interior lights come on when you open the door(s)?

I'm going to make an assumption here. The only thing that changed was replacing the dash lights with LEDS. No other mods were made and the dash lights did work prior to the change. Is that correct?

On the 87-1page, where it said hot to start or run in the Central Junction box the 16 29 5A 31 inside the box, Are those suppose to be Fuses?

Thank you for the diagrams

The numbers can be confusing to make it simple its fuse #29 and its 5amp the other numbers are just wire numbers

Hey 5.4T,

I recommend heading over to your Ford/Lincoln Dealer for diagnosis. You may locate one and schedule an appointment here.

Have a great weekend.
