Hi I'm new here,i was woundering if you guys could help me.ive got a 53 plate stilo and I can't get my front ceiling light to work.the weird thing is that the 2 lights either side work fine but the center 1 that is surposed to come on when you open the doors don't work?? It don't even come on when you press the button manually.ive changed the bulb but still don't work,I was thinking maybe it's a fuse but surely the map lights either side wouldn't work either being in the same unit but they do????


Has any1 had the same problem or has any1 got any ideas?
I would appreciate there input as I'm stumped •_•

Does the rear one come on when you press the button for the front one

No I haven't got a rear ceiling light? I have a 53 plate 3dr 1.6 16v sport ?

Oh, must be a 5-door only addition then. Damn, was going to see if that comes on or off also to work out if it's just the switch or the whole unit.

My 3-dr has a rear ceiling light, two buttons, might be something only the Abarth 3-dr got.

After leaving doors open for some time, the interior lights go off. Therefore, if they're not coming on, I wonder if the body computer 'thinks' a door is open, due to a faulty switch or poor connection at the round plug (doorframe). Does the instrument panel report any doors being open?
