How can you fix the dome light on a 1995 Ford Contour?

Answer 1

Assuming you have already confirmed the fuse and the bulb are in working order, you probably have a poor connection on either the positive or negative side of the bulb socket. Using a voltmeter check for voltage in the light socket. Make sure you pick up ground somewhere besides the socket. If you have no voltage, there is a break in the power circut, if you have 12 or more volts, leave the positive probe in place and probe the other contact in the socket. You should have 12 volts again. If not, remove the dome light assembly, clean the ground, and reassemble.
