Stupid Question. How do you turn on the rear reading lights. I can't find a switch or button anywhere and the owner's manual doesn't reference it, as far as I can tell. :confused:

The lamps swivel. Just push on the outer edge and it will turn off. Push the opposite side to turn it off.

That's OK - how often do you sit in the back seat!

You guys slay me! :lol: At my age the back seat IS for reading. I think other than vacuuming and cleaning the inside of the back window, the other day was the first time I ever sat back there just to see what it was like.

No I meant "Swapping Gob" as I believe you Canadians say it.

Just remember to push the light all the way back when you turn it off or every time you open your door the one will not light up.

Well, I did what you suggested and nothing happened. They don't seem to work in any position :depress: Any more advice?

Hmmm, do they turn on when you open the door?

Both rear lights should light when you open the door (they should be flush with the roof panel). With the door closed, angle the light toward the door and it should light. If this doesn't work, then your bulbs may be burned out if someone left them in the "on" position inadvertantly.

They don't work at all, so I will have dealer fix it.
