Interior light...
« on: 04 February 2011, 17:00 »
For some reason the interior light that comes on when you open the door now won't turn off when you shut/lock the doors.

Anyone got any suggestions?  The switch is on the right setting, so it's not that.

It could be due to moisture from condensation. I had the same problem with mine, pop the plastic cover off, remove the bulb and use a tissue/piece of cloth to try and dry as much as you can around the light (including through the hole into the headlining). This sorted it for me  :smiley:
