This is something that's starting to bug me now!
The interior lights have never worked since I got the van and now it's getting dark, not seeing my tools in the back is getting annoying!!
Also, the reverse lights have stopped working. The bulbs are fine and the fuses are all good.

What could it be??

They could be related but also two seperate issues. A common fault for the interior light is related to the instument panel. Try removing the fuse for 15mins. This is located in the fusebox under the bonnet.

That's quite strange, on Tuesday night the instrument panel completely died. All dials stopped working and the only light that lit up was the little green arrows that show the Indictators are on.
Took fuses out and checked them and it solved it. I've not got a manual, do you know which fuse I need to remove?
Cheers

Just take your air box out unplug your old switch, screw it out with a spanner. New one in, plug on, air box in, done.

I took out the fuse, on the back of the lid it has a symbol that looks like the instrument panel. Still no lights!!
