Hi All,
i know there are a few threads out there on similar issues but i cant find anything to help this particular issue, so i apologize for maybe double-posting!

I just got a new-to-me-S, and it's having two weird issues, before i start ripping out things to see, i want to check with the experts if they might be relate to anything in particular:

1. no lights when using the lock/unlock buttons on the keyfob. The audible moving of the locks in the doors is the only indication i have that anything happened.

and

2. none of the interior lights work with their respective switches, or when i open/close the doors. no combination of settings on the dome light buttons, for example, gets them to function at all, and the bulbs are fine.


any idea if these may be related, they seem too weird on their own to not be related...
again, sorry if this is a specific thing that has an answer already known!

 

If your car has an aftermarket alarm, prolly best to go to that manufacturer's site and D/L wiring instructions. And any other FAQ or "problems" posts. At least, that is what I'd do.

Good luck!

 

sorry it took me a sec to reply, but thanks for the tip! I don't have an aftermarket alarm though.

Today I disassembled the dome light unit to a point, mainly to see if anything was obviously wrong there and I couldn't see any dead giveaways. Multimeters and such next!
