2001 clk 55 amg (w208)
w208 project

Hello everyone. I'm new to mbworld and was hoping i could get a little help with my Mercedes project. I recently bought a 2001 clk 55 amg and I need to do some work to it. Nothing major needs to be done, its a pretty solid car but there are quite a few small things that are not working. First thing I want to fix is the dome light. When I open the door the dome light doesn't turn on like it should. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Yes, welcome. First off, what have you done if anything to trouble shoot it so far, before I start a asking or suggesting irrelevant options.

There is a button that has a picture of the car with doors open. If it's pressed and doors open no light, press it again. See if that works.
sheesh
