Center console light failure in 156
Hi.
I got a 156 1.8 ts SW from y. 2000 Yesterday i discovered that the cigarette lighter plug in the trunk was not working. Later same day I found that background light in the temperature knob and in the air direction knob was out of order. Can anyone say if that might be the same fuse or maybe more fuses? And can anyone say what fusebox? I just got the car and the litterature is missing. Gotta get that from some Alfa dealer nearby..........soon. Another question is about the key code. Is it possible to get the code (the one you keep at home) from the Alfa dealer? If confirmed, what info is needed? -- Lars Holst |

Lighter plug in the SW's trunk is only powered with the ignition key in the
"MAR" position. The fuse is 20A and is located in the top of the front dashbord (glove) compartment (carefully take out the small lid) All lights in the switches are fused with one (!!) 10A fuse The fuse is located in the main fuse compartment left right under the steering wheel, but not in the 15 main fuses, but in the separate 10 fuses above it!! They are numbered and located as follows 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 It is fuse #8, so the middle one on the bottom row. However, if the other knob control light work, I guess the bulbs are defective. You can get your key code at any official Alfa dealer as long as you can proove it's your car (id and official car papers) Good luck -- Ciao from Holland AlfistaGJ (Gert-Jan) Alfa red 156 SW 1.8 Madeno tuned (2000) (soon: GT 2.0JTS) Golden Montreal 1428700 (1973/4) "Lars Holst" > schreef in bericht .. . > Hi. > > I got a 156 1.8 ts SW from y. 2000 > Yesterday i discovered that the cigarette lighter plug in the trunk was > not > working. > Later same day I found that background light in the temperature knob and > in > the air direction knob was out of order. > > Can anyone say if that might be the same fuse or maybe more fuses? > And can anyone say what fusebox? > > I just got the car and the litterature is missing. > > Gotta get that from some Alfa dealer nearby..........soon. > > Another question is about the key code. > Is it possible to get the code (the one you keep at home) from the Alfa > dealer?
