Auto Parts: 1959 Ford courtesy light, fuse block, door switches


Question
In September I bought my first car, a 1959 Ford Custom 300.  The electrical system appears to work well excluding the courtesy dome light which never turns on.  I don't believe the door switches are broken and the light bulb is good.  If you have any suggestions as to what could be causing this problem, I would greatly appreciate your help.
Take care,
Riel

Answer
sorry riel but in a car that old you will have to get out your test light and start at the fuse block and work your way to the light to figure out where you are losing power. a lot of times it is on the back side of the headliner where they attach due to moisture build up.
