Unfortunately with the switch in the forward position the light stays on constantly even with the doors closed. I'm guessing the door switches which effectively break the circuit arent doing that so the light stays on. Ive near enough exhausted what I can do apart from changing the switches.
I'm guessing it will be something simple.

The interior light doesn't come on when you open the doors although the light does work when you put it in the on position, to the front of the car and to the rear of the car.
The boot opening does activate the resr light.
I guessed there was an issue with the door switches.
The passenger switch has two wires going to it but the drivers switch only one black and blue wire. Is this normal or is the drivers side door switch missing a wire?
I've cleaned them up but other than that I'm guessing replacements. I haven't checked the rear door switches yet but opening the rear doors does nothing either.
Has anyone got any ideas?
Many thanks in advance

Is the difference just that you are understanding or describing the light switch differently?u, fit the rear interior light in place of the front one?
Connect only the power to the front interior light, and run a wire to earth (
to imitate or emulate a good working door switch), using various light switch positions?
&c. &c.
Good luck with this.
.
Anyways, someone mentioned the possibility of a short circuit?
And what happens if you, can yo
