Door open switch/sensor

[antnee]

What do our mk3's use to tell the door is open for the interior light to come on and for the doors to lock?

Its gone on the passenger door, which is annoying as the passengers need the light more than I do

there is a switch on the inside of the b pillar frame which controls the interior light, you can only see it when the door is open

Hi, I need to change the door sensor for both doors for my Mk2 Ibiza. Anyone know where's best to get the replacement parts?

mk2 you'll find quite a lot on scrapyard i think

Still need to sort mine!

Does anyone know if its likely that door sensor is the problem, or if its usually the fuse in the circuit that's gone? (interior light works, but doesn't come on when the switch is on the 'door' setting)

If it's the fuse, where can I find it?

The reason I'm looking into this is becasue the car won't start and I'm told the glow plugs are involved with this circuit.

the fuses are under the steering colum
