Default X300: Interior lighting does not work

Hello everyone !

Well already my apologies for this very poor English, but being French, I go through a translator, therefore!

Well here's what brings me:

- The interior lighting of my x300 does not work
(no light when you open the doors, no light on the courtesy mirrors and no light on the ceiling light)
I bought it like that so, I don't know if it worked before.

So, if you could HELP me to solve this problem????

Thank you all and see you soon on our roads....

Which year as the early I recall has some differences

for a 96 see page 120

Do the lamps come on when opening the other doors ?

do any of the lights turn on manually?
is it just on door open they do not turn on?
no courtesy lights on the doors?

could it be the door open switches? or the slcm or bcm whichever controls door open sensor?

ok thanks for the link

In fact, nothing lights up, even in manual mode.

I'm going to watch this next week
see if I can already find the location of the fuse and/or relay....

where is the: BCM and SLCM?

A quick guide is here starting on page 17

X300 1996 LWB.pdf (jagrepair.com)

The # 1 fuse is closest to the large terminal post on the fuse boxes

Hello again to all!

Here I am again with this problem:

Recently my mecano to install a car radio
and miraculously the lighting of the ceiling light and courtesy mirror as well as doors work again

BUT

the courtesy mirror is down right I disassemble and rouve a cut wire
I solve it

and there:

More NO Lighting work!

I confess that I don’t understand anything and it annoys me a little bit

I have with manometer, checked the fuse box and those under backseat
they are all ok

So S.O.S. !!!!

Thank you all for your help!
(ps: I have a x300 3.2 from 1996 and do not own the booklets)
