Well, I pulled the wires and dome light out, hooked it up the new wires (took a minute to figure out which orange wire was what but a small piece of the ribbed/plain wire stuck in the old plug helped out along with a wiring diagram I got here). hooked up the light itself to the wires before install to make sure I do it right the first time, and it responds same as before. I used a test light on the wires as well (so i don't have to worry about the aforementioned polarity of the LED light) but to no avail. Same results all around.
Looking at the switch itself it seems untouched, sometimes it has the occasional flicker of the headlights but a light wiggle stops that. So I don't think that my problem is there.
My fuse block however is a different story, I think the problem could be closer to here. I have noticed some damage to it but it seemed minor mostly (except for the spot light fuse).
As I follow the ribbed/plain black wire from the light itself it goes to the 3 pin connector below the fuse block I think one orange wire goes to the fuse block, and the other orange wire goes behind the fuse block and up to the switch. there is a third white wire coming from behind the fuse block along side the 2 orange ones, so now I'm a bit confused.
What is it I'm missing here? it grounding out made sense and the wire wasn't pretty, but with that replaced I would think my problem would have gone, along with that wire.
