    I can't seem to figure out why the sleeper dome light in my 2000 Freightliner FLD120 doesn't work. I've replaced the bulb with the correct size, and am considering it's a relay. Does anyone have any pointers on what might be going on? Thanks!

    You have a switch on dash that controls it also, that switch may be bad?

    Unfortunately mine doesn't come with a handy little dash switch like that =( Only in the back corner of the sleeper and on the light housing.

    FLD 120 dead center between seats below center console. I think there are 4 screw that hold the panel in place. That's where it is on a classic, I'm sure 120 is the same. All else fails consult Owners Manual

    Yeah, I've got the cover off and everything, I just can't make any sense of what the heck's going on in there.

    Should be a legend on the panel side, saying what each fuse and relay goes to. It's either that or go find a test light and start probing, to see what's blown and what isn't.

    Also look behind where the wires lead to light for a burn wire

    Okay, are you talking just the regular dirver/passenger doors?
