Default missing interior lights still,,, can anyone help me at all>?????

these interior lights arent working,,,
door lock lights, steering wheel controls, door handle lights...
also my dome light in the back only,,, but it was working few weeks ago so i think that is unrelated and just a bulb.
Is the lock and steering wheel lights not on because i have an aftermarket radio???

Door lights burn out, very common.
Easy fix. #74 bulb. Bit of a PITA to remove, but at most 10 min job to do both sides.
Yes, unless you've got an adapter, the steering wheel controls are off because of the aftermarket headunit.
Google PAC-SWI (or search on here) and find an adapter that'll work for you.

I meant my steering wheel control lights,,, as for the controls working my cd player i dont care about that.

As for it being a fuse I checked them all and they seem fine,,, I dont think theres a fuse to run just those lights anyhow,, everything else seems to work fine. As for all the bulbs blown isnt that too much of a coincidence that all those bulbs all the door panel lights on both sides are blown as well as my wheel lights???

Steering wheel controls wont work, because they aren't be powered, therefore, no light. That's what I meant. Get the adapter so they work with your headunit, and power will be restored, and the lights will work again.

There's only 2 light bulbs in your door panels. One on each side. Nothing coincidental about it. It happens.
When I bought my car, my door panel light(s- both sides), steering wheel controls, AND my HVAC lighting didn't work.

Door switches do NOT light up.
This isn't a Grand Am.
The light is just above (it's rather useless in stock form) and illuminates down onto the switches. It's a #74.
HVAC is also #74. Here's a write up I did on how to replace the HVAC lights:
http://www.camarozone.com/replace-li...hvac-controls/
Shift light is also #74 I think.
Here's a write up for that:

Good luck.

Hi,
Pull out the old volt meter and check for continuity and voltage. This will help to narrow down your search area. Best of luck and have a blessed week. Capt. Jim
