Re: Interior lights not working
Am sure you know there is a 3 way switch (driver's door light) to turn them on w/door, off, on.
If in middle position lights will not come on.

Thanx , I'm aware of the 3 switch, I was thinking are they suposed to work with the autosleeper having 12v lighting?

Re: Interior lights not working
Those are the original VW van interior lights and will not be connected to the Autosleeper internal 'camper' electrics. They will be wired (via the fuse) to the starter battery. Fuse number 3 counting left to right if your van's the same as mine - same fuse as radio and ciggie lighter. The switches could be knackered/corroded; easy enough to remove as there's only one screw but take the fuse out first in case they short against the bodwork when you remove them to check.

Still not working with ignition on, fuse seems ok but will change anyway, the switch does look a little corroded
