Renault Trafic interior lights not working??

Hi guys. My interior cab lights, as well as the rear ones, don’t seem to work when the doors are open. The bulbs are working as they come on when the switch is in the on position. So I’m assuming the fuses are ok. Could it be a wiring fault at the switches on the doors? Any help would be great.

Door switches?
Or internal selector switch?

Wouldn't have thought it would be all door switches but have you checked operation of all?
Internal switches are often three position, one to turn on, one to turn off completely, one to let them come on when a door is opened.... would be my first place to look.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. Yes when all light switches internally are set to come on when doors are open, nothing comes on. If I switch them to on they work, obviously when they’re set to off they stay off. So I was think it may be something on the door switches but I’m unsure? I’m assuming it can’t be fuses as the light bulbs do work.

I have recently got a 73 plate trafic van and have exactly the same issue. My cab lights come on and works all ok, however the rear lights do not come on when I unlock or open the back doors. They do come on if I switch the rocker switch to the on position, meaning the lights work ok. Did you find out what the reason was? Thanks
