All my interior is still the normal incandescent bulbs.
I will replace them soon.
The door handles seem ok, only 1 out of 8 stopped working.

Chatting to Don, his has gone as well, same door, same year car.

Seems a bit odd.


I put 3v thought the old strip and nothing happening.
I'm going to get a 9v battery and try again. I might even put 12v or 19v,
I think my power packs run out at 19v. lol

240V ?? ;)

On a serious note, that is weird. Yours, Dan's and mine is 06 plate. Same door!? really weird.

Anyone replaced it?


There must be something that's causing it go more than the others?

No, so far I know only about yours and Dan's.

How about if you just take the right door card off and plug it in there to see if it works, does it take long to remove the door card??

Not really.
I think I stripped mine off twice and refitted in less than an hour and that's messing around with the strip trying to remove that.

I'd rather not remove things willynilly though.

I need to do my door handles at somepoint, so I might test it then.
