Re: IML: Headliner for the 60

["Rob van der Es" <r.vdes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John,

Thanks for your suggestion, but I am absolutely sure that the problem
isn't in the doorswitches.
To be sure, I have cut the yellow wires that come from the switches..
Temporarely ofcourse!
And guess what, the light stays on :(
I also disconnected the wire from the interior light switch in the
headliner, and still the dome light shines its light :)

According to Richard Burgess there is a connection point in the trunk near
the left rear wheel so I have to check out if this point is somehow
grounded..

Robert
