2006 Rabbit interior light
My 2006 Rabbit interior light no longer comes on when the front door is
opened. The lights still work when the three position toggle switch is turned to 'on'. The door switch still changes the display on the dash when opened. Any ideas? Is there a timer/relay somewhere that might be bad?? -- Jack |

The two areas I suspect first off are the door switch, and the three way switch in the fixture. Both can cause what you are seeing. -- I'm never going to grow up. |

Driver door lock assembly. Goes bad all the time. You should also notice the
key in ignition with door open chime and the headlights left on with door open chime no longer work. "Jack" wrote in message ...

Any recommendations on a good manual? Same goes for how to get at the three-way switch. |

Thanks for the reply. The door open and the key in ignition chime still do
work. "LG" > wrote in message ... > Driver door lock assembly. Goes bad all the time.
