   my interior light does not work when i have it in the middle position and open the doors, but when i move it to the on position it works. any one got any ideas what could be causing it not to work when the doors are opened?

   no worries type in citroen door pin switch on ebay £4.75 mate did the job for me but be careful if you do end up taking it out as the wire tends to fall in the hole on the pillar took me ages to get it out again hope that helps
