Default interior door lights

95 es300, My interior door lights do not come on when the door is opened. I physically inspected one of the bulbs and it appears to be good. Is there a fuse or faulty wiring that I can check?

Does your interior dome light come on when you open the door? If not, maybe the problem is your door switch/sensor. And sometimes the bulb can look okay upon inspection but still be dead. I'd try a new bulb first and see what happens. It should be a #194.

The dome light comes on. Upon inspection of the door light, it appears to be ok. I should try a replacement. Are they usually available at an AutoZone or Pep Boys?

Is that little nub that senses the door stuck? I had that problem with my back passenger doors and all I have to do is tap the button and then everything works O.o

That couldn't be the problem because the dome light comes on.

I just replaced the bulb with a #194 and the problem is the same. Is there a fuse that can be replaced?

I didn't see any fuses with labeling that related to the interior lights.
