in need of some help... i was tapping into the two wires that go the the little light around the barrel and i had bumped the two together coursing it to arc out...

since then my light dose not work after i have changed the bulb and checked all the fuses and there was none that where blown, where do these two wires go as i was wondering if there is a fuse down the line or dose it go to a relay

i am now dumb founded and at ends with it frustrated and ready to burn it,

iv tried to track the wires but loose the after about 4' coz it goes into the big loom with all the ignition wires any help will be a advantage

P.S reason i was tapping into them was coz i was steeling the power to run my led floor lights as the light that gos around the barrel times out once the doors are shut

This may help:

the relays under the steering colum are where i would start if you can't find any blown fuse on the boards with the panel near the steering wheel. You may hear them clicking when you lock and unlock the doors.

Hi Ramstar,

Did you solve this problem? I had the same thing happen to me last night whilst changing cluster globes to LED's.

Changed the globes behind the instrument cluster & climate control unit & Gauge Pod..Blue looks awsum...But....

I went to investigate if the ignition barrel light globe could be replaced, accidentally broke the globe in the balast and now...no interior light nor map lights which worked fine previous to this.

I have tested all fuses in the interior fuse box - all fine. Also tested the interior dome light for power supply - none.

No power at the ignition barrel light plug either.

Wondering if anyone may have knowledge of any other fuses for interior lighting?

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
