SL300 Interior lights

[bowtie]

I just purchased a 1990 SL300 and am trying to fix the little nagging things with this otherwise great car. Today.. Interior lights only come on when passenger door is open, not driver door. The buzzer for key in ignition activates with driver door, but not lights. All lights work normally with manual switch above rear view mirror and with passenger door.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Les

Your problem is surely the seat belt warning module. See this thread: http://www.benzworld.org/forums/r129-sl-class/1191684-interior-light-wont-come-when-drivers-door-open.html?
