Okay, so since day one I never had the lights in the front footwells orthe door ajar light or they lighted ignition, I just figured they were not in the 1995 RS. The other day while I was installing a new radio, I had the car on accessory while doing so (I already had the wiring connected, just had music playing while fitting the radio into the dash) well as I shifted the radio which of course moves wiring, those lights all came on, and the obd2 scanner even picked up the obd2 port that I had yet to actually test (red led lit up)

Problem is, since then I have yet to find the wiring that got moved so I can do something about it working constantly. I tried puttingit on accessory with the door open and just reaching in, pushing lightly on the wiring harnesses in there, but the lights never flashed on or anything. So Im wondering, might anyone know or better yet have a picture of the wiring in there that would affect the door ajar sensors, the obd2 port, the footwell lights (probably same as door ajar sensor)? I definitely want to address and correct thewiring issue to avoid a possible fire once its on the road.
 
It actoully has its own fuse. Id go along the electrical system with a ohm meter and just keep going and try to find it that way.
 
+1 on wanting to know the wiring for interior lights. I have a similar problem except none of my interior lights work ROFL. It's so dark at night the only thing lit is my speedometer
