unplug the fuse (14) and plug it back in. You need to reset the LCM. The fuse isn't popped, but the LCM shut down.

Btw, put your earplugs on when you do this (ask me how I know)

Have the interior lights ever worked since you've owned the vehicle...or did this just occur out of the blue?

Have you or any other passenger recently pressed & held the interior light button up near the rearview mirror? Did you know if you do this it will prevent the interior lights from coming on (according to the owners manual)?

Have you triied pressing the interior liight button to see if you can manually turn them on? It is the middle button between the reading lamps upnear the rearview mirror.

I'm sorry I typed it wrong.

It's fuse 41, and put earplugs on. You'll thank me later. Just remove the fuse and put it right back in.
