Does anyone know what activates the interior lights when a door is opened ?
When I open any of the doors the interior lights come on except when I open the drivers door - nothing. I noticed that the switch panel on the drivers door is not illuminated either when the headlights are on so I'm thinking there is some issue with the drivers door electrics....but what ???

Its all in the latch sir

Thanks Craig - do you know the part number of the latch so I have an idea what I'm looking for ? The remote operates all the doors except the drivers so am I correct in thinking that's all to do with the same thing ?

Has it worked since you've had it, if not it could have had the plug pulled out by someone in the door...

Worth checking before forking out on new bits..... Pete

I had a similar problem.

Remote did all doors but drivers.

Acf50 and Wd40 down the lock button on drivers door and operating it with the key several times eventually made it work by remote

It also then made my one touch window opening button work on drivers door and a few other things as well ... which was nice Howard

I've had the door card off and the plugs are all okay. I also sprayed the whole lot with WD40 while I was at it but it made no difference. The one touch window works okay for the drivers side but will not operate any other windows !! The switchpack also operates the drives mirror but not the passenger side - confusing  2017 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography

Send Dan a PM with your VIN sir

Look behind the bonnet pull panel, maybe a loose connection block there, with the windows not working properly as well you would think it was more than the latch??? Mind you its an FF so anything is possible...!! Pete

there's six'ish plugs you need to make sure that are properly inserted in their relevant sockets...sounds like one might be loose. ... - .- -.

Thanks - I'll take the bonnet pull panel off at the weekend and make sure all six connectors are connected securely. 2017 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography

+1 stan I had the same a few weeks back when my door cable snapped. Make sure all connectors are fully inserted even if they look like they are already, disconnect and reconnect took me a couple of off on goes before the electrics worked ok again.

Had the same issue with the 2006, door card had been off for new door handles and the driver one the connector wasn't on properly although it looked like it was. Installed it properly and everything started working again  MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

don't know if this will help
the white connector on the driver switch pack I think has the p-bus signal which covers most of the items you mention
if the drivers door card is removed and dropped to the ground then It can stress the loom at the white connector on the door switch panel cause strange issues with windows/doors.locks

I found if I held firm thumb pressure on the top of the white connector, all was good. I think the stress is in the internal crimps of the white connector, nothing visible on the loom itself. Fixed it by using a bodge - big tie wrap round the switch pack and over the top of the white connector to hold pressure

That sounds feasable Ricky. I'll take the door card off on the next dry day.......next spring probably !!! 2017 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography
