disco 2 inside light not working

Recommended Posts

My inside roof light doesnt work when u open the doors but works when u turn it on manualy

any body know out about these?

Cheers smithy

all of them or just the front one? ... it's important to know cos they are managed by the BCU

a door switch would have disturbed the alarm too...and the SLS if fitted

The interior courtesy lamps are timed... if a door was opened a longer time then closed without turning ignition the lamps will not work. Do they work when you turn ignition off? ...if yes check again after locking/unlocking doors...if not, and taking into account the alarm/fob missbehaviour too check for water ingress at the BCU's plugs and u can try to join together the purple/blue trace wires from highligted plug in the pic.... water ingress from the windscreen is causing corrosion in the plugs there The BCU is not far from this plug on the same post but u have to remove the glovebox to reach it

Sierrafery thank you I manage to get SLS to work the compressor had packed up and was blowing the fuse under hood what else should I look at for interior lights they still do not come on when you open doors they do when you switch them on?? Alarm sets and goes off if set off and all doors lock with key fob.
