Grand Wagoneer Roof Console
 

Any idea how to remove the Centre Roof Console from a '91 Grand Wagoneer ?
It has 4 lights in in (2 in the front and 2 in the back) and I want to
change the bulbs / inspect the wiring.

Hi Dave,
On all the cars I've worked on, the plastic lens flexed enough with
the prying of a knife to pop out.

Dave:

To remove the map light lenses to change the bulbs, make a hook
in a heavy gauge paper clip and put it in the hole in the rear of
the lens. Pull down and the lens should release. To reinstall
place the front tab on the lens into the corresponding slot then
push the back up until it snaps into place.

To remove the whole console:

There is a hidden phillips head screw in the midline of the
console and about 2 inches in fromt of the compass/thermometer
towards the front of the Jeep. You can feel the indentation with
your fingers and there will probably be a subtle defect in the
cloth covering of that part of the console. If not, you must
discreetly puncture the material to insert the screwdriver.

Insert a screwdriver and loosen the screw completely.

Then open the sunglasses compartment and loosen that screw.

Then slide the whole console to the rear to disengage the bracket
and it will be free.

Disconnect the wiring harness connectors and you're done!!

Hope this helps,

Frank
