My Greyhawk schematic shows that the map/dome lights get power from fuse #11 on the coach DC fuse panel. Not sure if yours is wired the same but worth checking.

Is your Redhawk built on a Ford chassis? The Ford owner's manual for V10 says to change the oil and filter every 7500 miles. As others have said, I use high quality synthetic oil.
