9 of 92 fuse box diagram
#1
is it a 92 or 93 electrical wise. my cover over the fuse box is missing,and a few things don't work like dome lights,dash illumination,radio,no power going uphill, the suv has a 1.6 liter 16 valve motor in a 4 dr 4wd manual transmission,and black spark plugs that i found out while doing a compression check that was low,120 90 100,120 dry. the sidekick hasn't been run for three years because it had no umph going uphill. i was volentiered to fix it.yeahRolleyes

i cleaned out the clutter and junk out of the car and found the cover for the fuse box. when i had the door open and took out the fuse for the dome light it sparked but still no dome light,so i took the dome light out and applied 12v directly to the two wires and it works. it has 12v at the light it might be a bad body ground somewhere. where is the body ground for the inside lights?

the doom 12vdc power feed runs dome lamp and ECU , TCM and cruise. (memory on the latter)
the doom is 12vdc, power to all those. its just power. nothing more.... the fuse must be good and not blow.
if it blows that means.
that wire is shorting to the body of the car, at any place, on that power feed.
but a short , causes that fuse doom to blow,

the body ground , is just that body ground, at the door switches, its not power, its doom switches,, the switches close , its not power
but rather the lamps other side, see the schematic yet>?
.
when the fuse sparked, that was it blowing up, did you not check the fuse NEXT, for continuity next.
0 OHMS GOOD
INFINITY BAD.
a blow fuse tells you its the power feed dome shorted
the door switches shorted or stuck closed ONLY cause the dome to glow. by design.

see page 8 (114)
this is dOME circuit , its super simple.
but the feed wire goes many places, and every inch,could short. somewhere.

not all pages are here, buy a real Service manual for you car for your country is better
but many things are very much same. not all

http://www.fixkick.com/schematics-run.html

in USA due to US federal regs. all this changed. relays moved, and new fuse boxes. top the list.
1996 year. huge changes, electrics, and smog related. and OBD2 was Invented here.

the cover looks like the one in the diagram. i think i have a bad ground in my illumination lights because the fuse is good checked it with an ohm meter,and i have 12v to the dome light and if i take it off and run 12v positive and negative it works, but when i hook it back up nothing..my headlights work and so does my signal and hazard just no tail lights or interior illumination like ashtray,heater,dash or dome. where is the common ground for this system? if i run 12v + to the red/yellow wire behind the dimmer it might work or check the light wires for 12v. is it possible to bypass the dimmer?

WHO what a mess there
lost all grounds.
there are a vast number of grounds. both harness grounds, (black)and body grounds.
the FSM covers that, 92 to 95 (you still have no signature,, 93? why make helper have to read your posts.)
the pages in the book show everything, buy the book?
or read the books clearly shown in the above, welcome page
ever read the welcome page?

the dome has 3 wires, 12vdc, , ground, and the door switches
if the 12vdc reaches the lamp.
then when you move the dome lever, from off, to on, the ground at the lamp make the lamp glow, localy
when the lever is in auto the door switches provide the grounds.
your voltmeter tells you whats up. if all 3 pins on the dome socket are at 12vdc then the ground is cut.
simple fact,but what are all 3 missing, lamp gound, door left. and door right, how can all 3 fail.


cant find welcome here

or here

and the rhinopage
http://www.rhinoman.org/manuals/vitara/vit_manuals.html


working on any car this bad and no service manual is a HUGE effort and failure.
the book shows every harness, and every ground, gxxx Gxxx every one, and a power distribution and ground distribution
schemaTICS
ENDLESS FACTS THERE. YOU Should buy one, but our books are for our cars,
so if not in USA, you need your books
we get ours off fleabay,, after aLL SUZUKI DONT SELL THEM)

LETS FIX 1 AT A TIME, OK
DOME
I SENT THE SCHEMATIC YESTERDAY
so ill now cut out page.
see this, all 92-95 vit/kick./trackers are this.
got a volt meter? black lead to battery neg lug for 100% TRUTH.
meter read lead
touched to lamp base (lens off) white wire.
12vdc. key off or on, its 12vdc here for ever.... if fuse not blown. a fact.
if that test passes, then test 2.
see the OFF DOOR ON pins, turn the lever to ON, then measure the lamp ends
one end is12vdc, the other is 0v, if not 0 the switch is bad or the lamp base ground is bad, its just a screw ground to the body.
if that works then turn the lever to DOORS
open a door, if he door lamp does not have 12vdc one side and 0v the other switch in lamp is bad. or the door
switch is bad.
repeat by other door open,.
12vdc must stay on the lamps hot side, at all times,if not, that fuse is bad
the other lamp end is the ground end.
you must get ground there all 3 ways,lamp switch, ground , door left ground and door right ground'
there are no why for all3 grounds bad.
no way, its just the cars body. after all engine runs so... battery is tied to body at the battery tobody grounds
see the g100 column for 1995 grounds here
http://www.fixkick.com/Good_Bad_Ugly/com...lures.html
all critical.
G100 RUNS all body grounds.

in what county must be in your signature.... must. please.
