Interior lighting
« on: 01 December 2004, 20:51 »
Anyone know how to get into the interior light for the heater controls as mine is out/needs new bulb?

Also interior lights don't come on when i open the passenger door

Not done it myself because my controls aren't the same as yours,  but apparently you can get to the bulb by giving the knob in the centre a good tug (oo er missus) and it should come out. You should then see the bulb behind it but it's a git to get to, so use a small piece of hose and push it over the bulb, then slowly work it out.
Wont be much help on your other problem i'm afraid.. could be a fuse, switch at the door, switch at the lights themselves, bulb, broken wire etc etc. You'll just have to eliminate one at a time i think  :undecided:

Cheers Toph,

I will have a look at the centre 'KNOB' and give it a tug for britain!!!

The door thing, well apparently it's take the door off time and look there as it all works fine with my door, then again if mine works stuff the passenger!!!

thanx again
