Default Interior Courtesy Lights

I am new to this forum.

I have a 1991 Corvette coupe. My courtesy lights mounted in the arm rest, the map lights in the mirror, and the lights in the radio buttons are not working. I have checked the fuses, they seem to be ok. Any suggestions ?

My '93 has a relay behind the dash on the drivers side that controls the interior lights, mine was missing because the passenger door switch was out of adjustment and whey I hit a bump the interior lights would flash.

Thanks for the tip.

I need to take the instrument cluster out anyway. I had some work done at a Chevrolet garage and they didn't get the connections tight to the instrument cluster, so only half of it is working currently. I'll check for the relay when I have the cluster out.

Mine went out on my '91 a few years ago.

IIRC, there are a couple of fuses under the right hush panel and one of them had blown.
IIRC again, there is a fuse in the fuse panel that says CTSY or something like that on it.
May want to check that one.

Good luck with it.

Default Access to fuse and relay panels

I also have a 90' Coupe with a non working Horn and my curtesy lights are not working. I have been directed to the Relay panel and aux fuse holder behind the right side inst. panel. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to gain access to it. Most corvette owners I have talked to said "it's behind the panel just pull it off" I still cannot see where I can get the panel removed without breakng something. The knee bolster is covered by a carpet type fabric that is glued on. I do not see any ready access screw holes. I am sure once I get the panel off and see the relays and fuse holder I can figure out the problem. My car is coming up for inspection and I need to get this resolved before the end of the month or it sits in the garage. Thanks for the help in advance. Steve
