interior light not working

[tommycon45]

hiya.
the interior light doesn't come on when the doors are opened but they work if switched on at the light holder,,, the door pillar switch is working as the warning buzzer works when door is opened while headlights are on.
thinking maybe a wire as come off the light unit but before i start trying to pull it out of the headlinning just writing to ask as anyone else had this problem????
cheers

On mine the light that comes on when the door's open and the lights operated by the switch are seperate bulbs.

but they are in the same unit arent they?
i`m only thinking the problem is at this end as the door switch works the buzzer.
no probs in day light just a pain when its dark,,, ha ha

I've got a blue led light int he middle which works when i open the door and then a light either side which is operated by the switches, do u mean the switches on the unit on the roof or by the headlight unit?

Tommy, if you do need to take it down from the headlining it just unclips and pulls out, or at least it does on mine, no big deal mate

its the light in the headlinning thats operated by the plunjer type switch in the door pillar,,, its the older style linning,,, yep i know its easy enough to pull out but it dark by the time i finish work,,, will have a look at weekend just wondered if this problem was common.
i cant remember now if unlocking the door normaly turns it on as well,,,, i`m sure my R reg V6 lights up when i unlock it,,, but sods law,,, no battery on at the mo!!! ha ha
