Re: '97 TJ Door Removal & Dead Battery
 
It's the #4 fuse in the '97 and newer TJs.

I was corrected further down the thread. I've lost my
fuse #4. It's unneeded anyway.

Re: '97 TJ Door Removal & Dead Battery
 
I took my fuse out and made up two spade lugs that fit the fuse block. One
lug has a wire which goes through an on/off switch mounted up under the
glove box then through an in line fuse holder and back to the other lug and
the lugs then plug into the two leg slots for fuse number four in the fuse
block. I can then turn the switch so the light works when I have my doors on
and turn it to off when they aren't on the TJ. Works quite well and the
light is nice when the doors are on.

Quadratec sells something just like that. I can't find it in my catalog, but
I know I've seen it.
