Strange Interior Light Problem.....

mrh · 30-06-2006, 23:27

Having just driven 140 miles, we arrived at our destination for the next week in dark.

Opened the car door, expecting the interior light to open and nothing happened - well nothing except the the rear passenger, driver side interior light.

Have checked switch positions, and have also spotted that none of the other interior lights work, the vanity mirror lights, the external "puddle" lights on the mirrors, the boot light, glove box light and the footwell light (i think).

I've looked in the manual, and can't see how it could be a fuse, as one of the rear interior lights still work!

Any ideas or thoughts as what could be causing this strange behaviour????

Many thanks

Matthew

Matt Try for water in the footwells, under front seats. Lots wiring there. Len

Yes, thats similar to what I had on my Superb, water leak around pollen filter allowed water to soak the carpet under front passenger seat, big box full of wires etc down there, dealer sorted it, but it took 2 visits to get it dried out properly.
