i know this is going to sound wierd but i had the same problem, thought it was wiring but i had the engine management light come on once so zipped to my local garage, plugged the old doo-dah in and cleared the code (engine splutter) and as soon as he deleted it all my interior started working as if it was back from holiday, may be worth a shot?

you tryed new bulbs in side repeaters? puddle light will be the door mod. The switch gets stuck in it, i got a + screw driver and on your door lock theres 2 big screws ,put the screw driver in the bottom one and hit it with a hammer until your puddle light comes on.  :wink:

check fuses.  :undecided: i know your puddle light and int lights the door mod unit. Im thinking your side indicators is a wiring fault, fuse or flasher unit prob not flasher unit or bad connection to it. Try and pick up one from scrap yard. Do both front side indicator not working.

if so and no fuses gone get second hand flasher unit or rewire so they join on the front indicators.

3 and 5 door appear the same.... You could just solder your current one?
