    Interior lights & key pad not working

    could anyone advise me about the interior lights? When lifting the driver's side door handle, the key pad and the inside lights don't go on. Is there a fuse or some other fix? Thank you for any help

    I believe this ^^^^^^^^^^^^ is the correct answer.

    ^^^---- My 03 and 04 both the pad illuminates and interior lights work once you start pushing buttons, I never have mine in the auto position on the headlight switch

    Op. Do the dome lights work if you open the door?

    On My 2003 Marquis if the car was locked, regardless the headlight switch position, when You lift the door handle driver or passenger, the dome lights would come on. On My 2004 Marauder, they do not do that. They only come on when You press the keypad or unlock the car with remote.

    No lifty lights on Marauder. Touch the keypad and exterior lights illuminate if auto lamps are on. My '95 SHO had all lights come on if door handle was lifted.

    What do you mean by lifty lights? Was that meaning if someone pulls the handle then no lights come on?

    Check all your fuses. Honestly idk if lifting the door handle turns the inside lights on

    In my vid the headlight switch is in the off position as I never use the auto feature

    You fit led light on your keypad side . After that you doesn't face any type of problem.
