The wire to the light may have been cut you may have to go thru the car to find it, lines were cut back in the day so you could have the doors open and the light would not come on and attract bugs. Or maybe the light assembly is bad or has bad wiring in it you could replace it but if it still doesnt work then the wire was probably cut.

One more question. They don't come with the dimmer switch, or just when the door opens, or both? Make that two more questions. How bout the glove box light? Looking at my Hayne's manual, the wiring diagram shows that all those are controlled by the Body Control Module (BCM). If glove box doesn't work, and they don't come on with dimmer switch, I would suspect the BCM being faulty.

no lights come on with the dimmer,map lights,dome,glove box,so you might be right about the bcm being faulty

and no,none of the lights come on when the door opens,the only lights that work are the headlights,fog lights,guage lights,cd player,and the little light in/near the door handle on the inside

I just looked up the price at www.rockauto.com and it was $185. I'm not sure where all you could get one.
