door lights are out

**third_shift|studios** · 01-04-2009, 09:56 PM

all the lights on both my doors are out

If a fuse, which/where? I'm doubting bulbs-that would be wierd for them all to go out like that.

if you are talking about the two little red ones mine went out in a pair.

Replaced in a pair and havent had a problem...

those and the lights that illuminate the door lock/mirror adj lettering

**JoshieDoom** · 01-05-2009, 06:07 AM

I only have 1 light on each door.. Maybe I have more out!?

**TransAm11973** · 01-05-2009, 11:53 AM

they could have both gone out at the same time.....i just had both fog lights go out the other day........one would think that it would keep doing that b/c light dont usually go out together. But I replaced them and have had no problems...it was very strange

**JoshieDoom** · 01-05-2009, 12:12 PM

Yep. Pretty sure J is just gonna replace the bulbs lol..

**TransAm11973** · 01-05-2009, 12:20 PM

They are expensive at autozone for those 2 little bastards... Since jaison is off chasing the rainbow ill jack the thread and ask if there is any brighter option to the stock bulb?

LOL.. i need one of those pics.. congrats on the GM thing man.

hey i never took those bulbs out but is the bulb red or is it a film on the door... wonder about changing the color if anyone has done it

**JoshieDoom** · 01-06-2009, 07:22 PM

You would have to drill out the red and get a colored LED. You can do it for less than 3 bucks

so on these cars the door window and lock buttons are supposed to light up? i just got this car and i am still learning about it. wat about the buttons on the steering wheel are those supposed to light up? i have a '98 and none of these buttons are lit on my car.

**JoshieDoom** · 01-06-2009, 07:53 PM

The steering wheel controls and two little lights above the switches. The switches do not light up on the 4th gen birds

the steering wheel buttons are back lit.......the window and lock buttons on the door are lit by a small bulb above them on the door itself. You will see a small hole near the top of the handle on the door. It has a red plastic cover over it inside the door so it shines red b/c its a clear bulb.

**Siciliano15** · 01-06-2009, 07:57 PM

oh ok so yes to the steering wheel controls... guess ill have to order some new bulbs for those. the door switches though im gonna have to look at that i dont remember seeing any small lights on the door but maybe i just wasnt paying attention

**JoshieDoom** · 01-06-2009, 07:58 PM

You have to solder the bulbs in the steering wheels controls. There is a sticky somewhere
