Glove Box Light

[SlimJim]

No I haven’t, should I do that to all of them ? Just can’t understand after a year why they’ve stopped working.

I’m going to try a BSI reset again after replacing the led lights. Do you think that will work ?

It may be easier to test the light sockets with a multimeter Jim. This would tell you whether there is power to the lighting socket or not and rule out faulty bulbs. Then you would know (assuming the timer has not kicked in and switched the power off) if there is an issue further back towards the fuse box.

Hi, so I’ve tested them and can’t see any current going to the glove box or the storage box in the centre piece.

Is it worth buying a OBD error reader ?

You will get limited results Jim with a bog standard OBD II reader - as they are generally unsophisticated enough to read anything more than the basic error codes. They often can't read the constructor codes for specific equipment / options, so I couldn't say.

We really only can recommend Diagbox here as this is the nearest one will get to the dealer-level kit, despite it being a clone and the software fiddly to install, and requiring a dedicated laptop.

Just make sure that the reason that there is no power is not due to economy mode kicking in or the internal light timing kicking in and switching off the lights. If you are sure this is not the case, then it might be worth getting the dealer to run a diagnostic on it for you which may be quicker to troubleshoot in the long run.

Can it be the BSI ? Should I change all of the lights back to standard bulbs ? It’s baffling that it’s sudden happened.

That may be worth doing just in case

Ok I’ve solved it

So I decided to got back to the fuses and changed every single single one and basically bought two new packs of fuses, because I’ve read that micro fuses can be bought damaged

I basically tried the fuses and it’s working. Problem solve. So happy and so grateful for your support

Amen to that!
