Default Under hood lights

Hi Everyone,
My under hood lights on my 1995 stopped working, they just worked last week so i assume a connection has come loose.
Where do i find the connections under the hood for these lights?
Mike

There is a fuse under the hood, I am thinking its on the right side. Trace the wires down til you find it. It is usually used to disable the lights when your working on the car so you wont run the battery down.

There is a connector inside the hood, near the left headlight. Trace the wire back and you will find it. Mine had been disconnected by a PO. Also check the bulbs. One of mine had burnt out. If neither fix it, fuse next.

On my '97, there's a connector on each side. And each
light has its own internal mercury switch, so I'd be
thinking fuse if they both quit at the same time.

Fuse holder is just forward of the round vacumn reserve tank.

My '94 has a nifty little toggle switch on the left side near the headlight. I guess a previous owner installed it (and did a neat/professional job).
