Diagnostic guidance. Suggested checks and possible repairs are separate from the owner's reported results.
Begin with one simple comparison: with the vehicle parked, try each front overhead light using its own button, then check its response to opening a door. Check the owner's manual for any separate door-operated lighting setting. Write down which front lights work in each mode. If a front light works manually but not with a door open, the lamp can illuminate; investigate its door-operation setting and control circuit before replacing the bulb. The rear light responding to a door does not establish that every part of the front lighting circuit is working. If a front light does not work in either mode, check whether it uses a serviceable bulb. Inspect the correct bulb and socket with power off and following the owner's manual. If the bulb is confirmed faulty, replace it with the specified type and retest. If the bulb is sound, or the unit uses integrated LEDs, have its power, ground, and controls checked before replacing the assembly. This manual-versus-door comparison is a useful first step: it narrows the search and gives you a specific result to report back.
Original discussion, supplied source snapshot: https://2carpros.com/questions/luces-interiores--1713508 Documents rear-light operation and the unanswered question about the front buttons. The proposed comparison resolves that missing information. Fluke, Diagnosing voltage drops (consulted 2026-10-11): https://www.fluke.com/en-us/learn/blog/automotive/electrical-automotive-troubleshooting Supports checking electrical supply and ground paths when an electrical load does not operate. This is general circuit guidance, not a wiring diagram for this vehicle. The conditional checks are diagnostic reasoning. Front-light settings, bulb or LED construction, and wiring have not been verified for this vehicle's equipment. Use the applicable owner's manual and service information; do not assume a particular fuse or component has failed.
Interior lights?
The owner reported that the rear ceiling light illuminated when the doors or trunk were opened, while the front overhead lights did not. A contributor asked whether the bulbs had been checked. The owner asked about operation using the front light buttons, and the contributor replied that the lights should illuminate when those buttons are pressed.
Reported outcome: The exchange ended without a clear report of the front lights operating manually, a bulb-test result, or a repair.
This brief discussion does not establish whether the issue involves bulbs, switch settings, wiring, or another part of the lighting system.
