#1: Drivers Door Interior Light Switch Author: Speighty, Posted: Thu Mar 28, 2013 10:11 am ---- Since i have owned the car, about 2 year opening the drivers door has never turned the courtesy light on, passenger side does and if i remove the key from the ignition the light comes on.
I also dont get a warning sound if the lights have been left on, this has caused a few flat batteries, i know the switch is built into the lock.
What are my options, a new lock or could the wiring be at fault, the electric window works fine.
Cheers for any help.

The lights warning comes from a buzzer in the BSI.
It only comes-on when you open driver's door I think (same as keys left in ignition barell warning) so it would make sense.

In regards to changing the door lock, is it just a matter of replacing the lock unit, I wouldn't need to change the exterior door lock, I can still use the key I have now, if so I can try and get a unit from a scrap yard.
