yes it is the fuse for the cig lighter.... and use the search tool.... search for "Lighting mods" iin order for your door sills to illuminate... your lights have to fade in when youopen your door...

Ive noticed this problem happens to these cars alot. If the fuse doesnt do the trick theres a nut on the back of the cig lighter that gets loose and grounds out. You gota pull the lighter out and tighten the nut and you should be fine.

I just faced with the same problem sills do not lights up. Here what Service manual says:




So in my case I remembered that I shut off the interior lights and that's the reason sills do not lights up. Once I switched interior lights back on, sills lights on! :-) Silly
I hope it may help you guys
