    Olds Intrigue '99 Electrical Prob

    The interior and trunk lamps quit working. (instrument panel is OK). I checked
    the book, and identified that all these lamps were controlled by one fuse -
    problem solved - NO!! Fuse was good.

    I then figured - well most of these lamps are on a dimmer circuit - go to the
    Olds store and buy whatever diims them - No help from the friendly parts man
    "Too many possibilities."

    Anybody solve a similar problem?

    The body computer module is what dims the interior lights, and you
    definitely don't want to replace that without knowing for sure it's bad. A
    wiring problem would be my first suspicion..

    Does the glovebox light work?

    NO; Neither the glove box or the trunk lite work - only reason I mention the
    trunk is that it (I assume) doesn't dim either. I appreciate your response.

    Well, the glovebox light (and series switch) is hooked up to ground on one
    side and the courtesy lights B+ output control of the BCM on the other end.
    That BCM output in turn gets its power from the INADV POWER fuse in the fuse
    block. It's got to be the fuse, the BCM or some wiring problem in between
    these parts..

    Can you send me a schematic of the circuit?
