Some 406 saloon / estates have - the higher spec ones, GTX, Executive, SE, possibly some others.
Being a V6, the OP's car may well have them so definitely worth checking.

Re: One door no longer triggers the interior lights
Quickest thing to check, then ;) It must be one circuit through the door lock and the bulb and then going back into the car / bsi and a blown blub then causes an open circuit.Doggy wrote:Some 406 saloon / estates have - the higher spec ones, GTX, Executive, SE, possibly some others.

Re: One door no longer triggers the interior lights
I do have lights in the door cards, so I'll have a look at the bulb. Easiest way to check it will be to open any of the other doors, since all of them turn on together. I guess fiddling with those wires may also be part of the trick if it is a contact issue.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Re: One door no longer triggers the interior lights
Not that easy, unfortunately....
Light bulb lights up when any other door opens up. Also, wiggling the wire bundle does nothing. I guess there's not much choice left but to access the locking mechanism...
