THX All my fuses are in place and "good"(alto they will be cleaned". But overhead/map lights will not light.
Should interior light come on w/ door opening?
Do I need key on?

I understand. I made reference to a '"short detector" it plugs across a removed fuse w/ a meter and a capacitor. it blinks and allow one to search for a short without having to ruin a good fuse.
Have you ever used the glass fuse instead for the ceramic fuses?
I have a set of 8/16/25's. Thought they might eliminate some corrosion.

The fuses run all of your systems. I pull the fuses on the non working systems until I find the short and then I put the ones that aren't shorting back. You could maybe fix the overhead light switch by coating the metal on the clips with something. I just find it more important to have a starting car than I do an interior light.

OK jumper circuit OR jumper station There is a positive battery connection in the engine bay?
I agree. One fuse at a time to search out a problem. As I stated earlier. the hatch release is a source of draw. The hatch does not latch; might be the hatch latch is not extending out enough to catch the lower release

There is a jumper station snip...
It acts as though the battery is low, but it's just a bad connection from the battery.
