For the over head console, non rail type :
Open the rear door, and grab each corner and pull down.
There are 4 or 6 spring clips holding the overhead console to the roof panel.

Once you have it down, you will see the gray bulb holders on the back, these are 1/4 turn bulb holders installed from the back.

If you did not get an owners manual with your truck ( purchased used ), you can download one from Ford :

Brake lights dont work or other lights are ok i change the break light switch i change all fuse but still some 10 dont work what can i do

Make sure you have the switch adjusted properly....If you remove the switch without unplugging it
the brake lights should come on....You have to have the brake light switch button placed in perfect position so when you mash pedal the switch button will release from switch causing the lights to come on.......Be sure the bulbs are not burnt out.....just for a test turn switch on and remove switch from pedal area without unplugging it to check for brake lights........If they are not on check bulbs..........

2006 Tiburon Map Light Conversion to LED Help

Your really messed up
First ,get an owners manual,if you don't have one already
Then always look up what the bulb or lamp # is,BEFORE you buy them. Looking up fuses and bulbs,is the main reason you ,absolutely need the owners manual.
You also need one, so all these silly people,stop asking what the check lights are for.

2007 Chrysler TOWN AND COUNTRY.. OVRHEAD MAP

I had the same problem on my 07 and it turned out to be caused by the bulbs getting too hot and melting the surrounding plastic which opened the circuit powering them. I was able to fix the problem by removing the bulbs and cleaning the sockets allowing the bulbs to seat correctly. The lenses snap off to give you access to the bulbs. If you are not familiar with how interiors of cars come apart, I would not suggest doing it as you may crack the lens.

I don't have any tail lights brake lights, and turn signals. i dont know what fuse or relay to check or replace, because I dont have a owners manual to cross reference. Oh my vehicle is a 1997 ford...

CHECK ALL LIGHT BULBS IN THE BACK. PROBABLY HAVE A FEW BAD BULBS THAT ARE BURNT OUT COMPLETELY. CHECK LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS ALSO. CHECK FUSES TOO TO MAKE SURE THE TAIL LIGHT FUSE IS GOOD.

HOW CAN I CHANGE THE BULBS FOR THE MAP LIGHTS AND THE CIGAR ASH RECEIVER WITHOUT BREAKING ANYTHING.

To change the bulbs for the map lights you need to first remove the screw located on the overhead console which is towards the front of the console (towards the front window). Then you need to pry down on the rear of the console. Once the console is removed you then need to remove the map light bulbholders and replace the bulbs.

As for the bulbs for the ashtray I am not sure if there is one.
