No solution. Only a start.
Did you check the fuses in the engine bay and the passenger cabin? |

Turn signal, headlights and tail lights go through the multi function switch
The interior lights and brake lights do not Does the horn work? Does the car start and run? Usually, if something stops working then we check for blown fuses When the fuses are not the problem then we must check for powers and grounds. Use a multi-meter to check for power at the interior lights when they should be powered up If they are good then check the grounds That should start you down the right way to diagnose the problem Oh, a wiring diagram would also help. |

If you can get a hold of the electrical diagram/schematics then you should be able to see which fuse leads to the relay that powers up the tail lights and interior lights.
The multi function switch provides a pathway to ground on the control side of that relay If you can locate that relay then try swapping it with another one like it Or if you know what you're doing then jump the circuit to test if the interior lights will come on. Oh, on some models, there is a black thing in the cabin fuse box. Got to make sure that it is in the right position and seated properly Use a flash light to see clearly if you have it and if it is in correctly It controls the power to the radio and interior lights and maybe one other thing. Good luck to you |
