Noticed the other day when out in the dark that the driver door handle ambient light not working. The other three doors work fine.

How does it connect to power - is there a supply lead under the door card and what sort of bulb is involved.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Haven't taken it apart myself, but I have taken the door card of. Yes there's a plug for the LED and has 2 wire going to that. I think it should be quite a easy job to replace.

Thanks for your speedy reply. Job for the weekend if not raining.
