Alright guys,
My interior light won't come on when I put the switch to on, but it'll come on fine when I open the door, the cigarette lighter won't work either so I think it could be a fuse, neither have worked since I got it :/
Could anyone confirm my thoughts on it being a fuse? Or tell me what else it could be?
Cheers,
Paddy!

Fuse, as the cig lighter and interior light are the same. Off the top of my head, its 22a under the steering wheel, in a multiplex.

It won't be a common fuse if the interior light comes on when you open a door, it's more likely the switch on the light is defective. Check all the wires in the light are conected & try cleaning the terminals, otherwise replace it. The cigarette lighter could be a fuse, so check that first.

I've checked the light, it all seems to be connected properly, I've got a spare interior light somewhere anyway so ill have to dig it out and try!
if I can get the lighter to work it'd be nice, would be handy to be able to charge my phone when driving

I've just had another look at this mate, the fuse box under the steering wheel in my car are sorted as F, e.g. F3, F9, F16 :/
