Centre Console Lights - Please Help

Post by sosolidsniper »

Hi,
I have recently tried to change my centre console lights, however when i replaced all the bulbs, only the right side of the centre console was illuminated! When i changed all the bulbs back to the original colour, and i had the same problem. So its not the bulbs, any ideas of the problem and a possible solution?! Thanks

OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

i would have thought no lights would be on if it was the fuse, its always worth a try and replacing it anyway

Are they led's or standards. Led's only work one way round.

They're LEDs, but then when i tried the standard bulbs they didn't work either!

I'm just about to try to replace the fuse, however i'm not sure what number they would come under in the fuse box, i've got the manual in front of me, and i'm thinking number 17, sound correct? by the way i have a 98' corsa b.
