My interiors don't come on when I open the doors, but they do come on when the hatch is opened. I pulled the switch out of the drivers door last night and cleaned the contacts. Does the switch have to be screwed to the chassis to work? If I unplug the switch and jump the 2 wires should the lights come on? Does the hatch switch run through the same relay as the doors? I don't want to tear the interior apart to get to the relay if I don't have to!! ANy other suggestions on things to look at would be great! Thanks
 
I cleaned the driver side switch and still nothing. I went and pulled the pass. side switch and one of the wires to the plug is gone(car side of plug, not switch.) Could this wire touching something inside the panel make the other switch not work. I'm gonna have to pull the interior panel to find the wire. How hard is it to replacement switches?
