remote light/car roof light
so when i got my max a couple of months ago(98 gle) when i pressed the unlock button from the remote, the inside roof light will come on and also when i opened the door the light will remain on till i close the door. But now it doesnt do that? can somoeone explain to me how the bulb works? b/c if i push the button the light does come on so im assumings its not the bulb right?

the only thing i can think of would be the switch on the dome light. it must be set to the "off" position, otherwise it would go one when the unlock button is pushed or it would remain on all the time. Put the switch to the middle and it should do the trick.

its a gle model, and there is no switch :| all i have is one button lol

Did you even check to see if the bulb burnt out? Something more sophisticated than switching out a bulb should be done by someone who's know how to do it. I'm no electrician so that's my advice to you.

Noob....
Take your face...put it next to the dome light...and inspect.
OR
Take a flat head screw driver, carefully pry the plastic cover off the dome light, and pop the bulb out by pushing on the brackets (to the side - it'll slide out so to speak). If it looks bad, replace it. It is most likely a DE1725 (if I recall correctly) bulb.

i have the gle model too, if ur talking about the map light, it's not gonna go one with the push of any button on the remote. If the dome light isn't working, then either the switch isn't in the right position, it will not go on, or if the bulb or a fuse is blown, it will not go on. This is about all the work that can be done on our part, the rest is up to you.

i did open it up and there is only one bulb and that bulb works fine when i press the button its just that when i open the door or press the unlock button on the remote it does not turn on like it used to. The driver and passenger door lights do turn on though.
