Dome Light Issue
The dome light in my ej8 doesnt light up at all. i did the cut the bk/gn and bk/yl wire or whatever colors they were and splice them together and it worked for awhile but now it doesnt work at all. light wont even turn on now. i doubt the bulb blew and i super glued the case over it so thats the last thing i want to take off.

Re: Dome Light Issue
You can't be sure the light didn't blow unless you check it. The fuse could have blown also so check that too.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

The bulb is out.
JUST because you glued it.
