2001 E320 Questions - Electrical Problems????

Hey guys. I have a few questions to ask you guys.

My interior passenger vanity light does not work at all. I replaced the bulb with a new one and it still doesnt work. Also my light in the ashtray area doesnt work as well. I replaced that bulb as well since it was burned out, and yet it does not work.

I checked all the fuses under the rear seat, under the hood, and in the dashboard to see if that could be a problem.

What should I do? Where should I check? What the hell is wrong with the car? and is it worth taking to the dealer if its an electrical problem somewhere in the car?

Any suggestions you guys have will be appreciated. Thanks for the help.

On the 01 I just traded the pass side vanity light quit also. Dealer replaced the visor/mirror which contains the switch. Simple fix and quick.
