Hi everyone I have a F1 360 1999 modena and I also have a problem that's driving me crazy. When I turned on the lights, the only interior illumination I have is the dash, oil pressure, speed, rpm, etc...All the switchs, window lever, A/C controls, glove compartment light and license plate lights are missing... I believe they may be a relay that commands all, or most of, but I'm tired of searching with no success. I check all the fuses, all ok. Can anyone help me telling me where that relay is? Sorry some mistakes, I'm from Portugal. Best regards, thanks for your time.
I don't think there is relay for the interior lights. Double check your fuses again. There are a few fuses for the lights. Dan
Thanks for your reply Dan I've checked and doulbe checked the fuses dehind the driver and passagenger seat. Is there another place with fuses? In the front compartment?
Hi there. Alan is correct. There are a few fuses in the front luggage compartment that protects the lights. One of them is the luggage compartment fuse that also protects other lights in its circuit. I recommend you open your owners manual and print the fuse page. Use a highlighter and start highlighting all the fuse that protects the lights. Then take the print out with you to your car and start checking them one by one until you find the blown fuse or fuses. My gut tells me you have 1 or 2 blown fuse. Remove and replace blown fuse and all your lights should work. Come over to Seattle and I will help you one weekend. I am here in Italy vacationing but I will be back in Seattle on May 18th. Dan
You can download your owners manual online. Just Google Ferrari Owners Manual. There's a section in the owners manual that covers all the fuses. Print it, highlight all the light fuses and start checking them one by one until you find the blown fuse or fuses. Ferrari fuses I learned are very sensitive. They blow very quickly. Hope that helps. Dan
They are in the luggage compartment. One 30A fuse for all the interior switches less instruments and overhead light. If you remove the driver side luggage compartment liner - there should be a label with all the fuse ID and locations. Should be second group from the front.
I live in Portugal Dan, it will take me a few hours to get to Seattle Since you are in Italy you should be the one visiting me Have a good vacation by the way... Thanks a lot for your help guys, in Portugal it's very dificult to find this kind of discussions, you guys rock. I'll check the luggage fuse box then, thanks for top tip speedster, seems to be the problem...hope that's the problem Best regards to you all,hope to post some good news soon...
And the winner is...fuse 25. I confess, I feel a little stupid...I didn't knew there was a box with fuses on the luggage compartment, nevertheless I should have seen the manual better. Big thanks to you all, thanks for your patience and time, best regards João Janeiro
Excellent! Great job Joao! I am happy to hear you were able to find the blown fuse. No worries. I still have yet to finish reading my entire owners manual as it's so much more fun to just drive the car. You are most welcome. Take care. Dan
You'r awsome. Thanks once again. If enyone ever travell to portugal give me a call. Best regards, stay safe.
I had a similar problem this past week. Interior dome light didn't work. Turned out to be fuse #70, behind the driver's seat. 15A. I suggest we all keep an assortment of mini blade type fuses on hand. I only had the larger ones so had to run to Radio Shack for the smaller ones.
Thanks! Wife and I haven't been to Portugal yet. Perhaps sometime in the near future. When we visit Portugal I will try and get in touch with you and perhaps we can meet for lunch or dinner. When you come visit Seattle contact me and I will buy you lunch and drive you around Seattle. Dan
Yep. Mine blew fuse number 70 too about 4 weeks ago. I learned that Ferrari fuses are very sensitive and blows very easily.
