STUPID ELECTRONICS!!!

so my door switches are stil not working, im talking about the pin switches that allow the light to turn on when the door opens and allows the alarm to arm.
so ive tryed cleaning out the screw holes so that they could ground better and also cleaned the ground on the pin switch its self as well. and its still not working

i had a multimeter and tested the power cable on the switch and grounded it to the screw hole with out it screwed in and i have a reading but still dosent work,

any ideas??
cheers

you should see 12v on the wires on the back of the door switch , this will be via the bulb , if not , work your way back to the light assembly , does it switch on at the light switch , that would prove it has power and a good bulb . I have had cases in the past were the door switch does not work 100% despite looking good , but strange that both should be off .

light works when u switch it, so you think it may be the switches?

mmmm... light should work when u ground red/white, sounds like a problem with interior light itself if getting power down at doorswitch
