Default Interior Door Lights
I have had my 2000 C5 coupe for just over a month and I am starting to finally notice the subtle things. So far the turn blinker / hazard blinker bug has showed up but I have another question. I cannot seem to get either interior door light to come on. This is the one with the red lens located on the lower rear panel of the door. Neither one seems to want to come on. I just hope that I am doing something stupid. Manual did not help. Thanks

unless you know something I don't (very possible) those are not lights they are just refectors incase you have your doors open at night. For example a break down on the side of the road. I am assuming you mean these in the yellow circle:

No such thing as a stupid question. Just un-informed.... Don't worry you'll learn as we all did..... a year ago I knew nothing about a C5... Not an expert but I know more today then I did yesterday....
