   Have you tried both doors? The one you tried could have a broken switch
   
   If i remember right its the middle setting.

   Sounds like you have corroded or bent contacts. You can remove the light easily and strip it down. Clean all the contacts with emery/sand paper, WD40 it and put back together.

   its the middle setting, the light comes down easy enough just get a screwdriver behind it..just pop it down and have a look for loose conections
