    Door Lights

    I put the LS door panels in, the ones with the lights next to the door handle. The problem is the lights dont turn on when you open the door or turn on the dome light. The wiring harnes for the lights were already in the door so i figured they would be plug and play. The bulbs are good, the fuses are good, and as far as i can tell all the wiring is fine. Any ideas?

    Is there a special ground clip or something?

        Everything in the door is connected, and the wires are good as far as i can trace them. the weird thing is that both dont work, and i tried both harnesses in each door. I tested the ground wires with a test light and they were both good. I guess i'l keep looking.

            Not sure if this applies to your case, but I thought there was a lighting control module in the LS, possibly others with the lighting option. In my car the lock cylinder, dome, footwell, and arm rest lights are controlled by this thing under the dash. I can hear it click lightly when the lights turn off. Perhaps you need this? Does your lighting have delayed shutoff? I'll check my EVTM.

              Havent dug into mine yet. When you open the pass door or just pull the handel all the key hole lights work properly. Drivers side dosent when the handle is pulled all the wiring is connected.
