Default interior lights

I have a 1993 vette and the doors lights stopped working . The fuse is fine , i Have changed both door pin switches . They do not come when the doors are opened or if you use the headlight switch . I also have changed the bulbs. The strange thing is that i'm getting power with a test light on both sides of the bulb but the bulbs aren't lit. Help !!

Are you sure you have power and just don't have them shut off by the headlight switch?

I had a 93 at work that would not turn on the interior lights with the doors but would work from the headlamp switch. Replaced the interior lamp/courtesy relay underneath the passenger side dash panel and it fixed it.

I believe that the OP needs to mention which bulbs in the door!!!

OP - are you talking about the 212-2 bulb or the 73 bulb in the door You only mention the doors. Do the foot-well lamps work?
