This past week I have been working on my interior in my 84 LX convertible. I bought a box of Killmat to try sound proofing better. I removed the interior down to the floor pans. I installed the killmat.
Being a perfectionist I have delayed putting everything back in to get all the quirks worked out. I repainted the door panels, console, dashboard, etc. I worked on my power windows positioning, replaced floor pan plugs.
I have a power brick type amp that sits behind the console. When i was putting my carpet back in I had to slip the carpet under the amp and its mass of wires. In doing so I accidentally pulled the RCA cables out of the head unit forcing me to pull the head unit to fix the connections. I did that yesterday. First thing this morning when I started to work on the car I noticed the interior lights dont come on when I open the doors. The trunk light also is dead. The map lights in the rear view do come on when switched, but they are supposed to.
I think I jossled something when i pulled the head unit out and put it back in. Apart from simply looking under the dash with a flashlight for a butt connector separated, is there any obvious to look for in regard to my interior and trunk lights?
I dont want to finish installing the driver seat and dashboard cover until I correct this.
Apart from that, I'll let everybody know how the killmat works out. I had just enough in 1 box to do the floor pans from the firewall to the backrest wall between the backseat and trunk. I think I may need to buy another box to do my trunk area too because most exhaust drone comes in through the trunk.
