Where can i find a dome wiring diagram for a 1998 chevy cavalier ?

Do your dash lights work? Check the dash light switch to see if it rotates to control the dome light, it may be turned off completely or the dome light ground wire may be loose. If not the wiring will run from the back of the fuse block through the body post to the dome light Good Luck

I have a 1989 chevy s10 horn radio and dome light not working keeps blowing horn/dm fuse out

Check inside the drivers and passenger side door jam for the little push in type switch. 9x out of 10 one or the other will be causing the short to the dome fuse. These little **** get rusty and also get alot of wear and tear from the door opening and shutting over and over. These switchs are what causes your dome light to come on when you open your door and or likewise they shut your dome light off when you shut you door. A very good way to test to see if one of these little switchs is the couprate is to take and hook up a voltage light into the negative side battery post after you disconnect the battery negative line.. If your voltage light is on than that would mean that you have a short somewhere in your system. Now, since you already know that you are blowing the dome fuse then your already halfway there. With the light on your votage light still on indicatin a short, unscrew the little switch on the door jam and disconnect the power wire from it. Check to see if the light on your voltage light is still indicating a short, if not then you can be sure that the door jam was the coulprete. Hope this is of help.

It's not a fuse, It is the internal wiring, the wiring from your dome light to your wiring harness is bad.. have you recently put in an aftermarket CD player?

2004 Chevy Caviler 4dr Base model when i step on the brakes the dome light comes on. it used to be when i shut off my car the radio wouldn't shut off now the problem has switched my radio will shut off now...

It sounds like your fuse block has gone bad and needs to be replaced. Locate and inspect the fuse box and look for any corrosion that is causing the short which is giving you the electrical problems. Good luck and keep me posted.
