Door contact switch for interior lighting
The interior light in the Vectra should be on when the door is open. When the door is closed, it lights up if the switch is turned. If the interior light does not light up, the door contact switch may be faulty. It creates contact with the interior light ground, which is constantly energized, and thus closes the electrical circuit - the lamp may light up. Malfunctions of the door contact switch may occur if:
- the switch push pin is jammed in the guide or bent. Replace the switch;
- the wire connector has come loose from the switch. To make the connector hold better, bend it a little and reinsert it.
The door contact switch itself is screwed to the door post with only one screw. When dismantling, unscrew the screw and take out the switch.
