Would ask this on CC|UK but its offline atm!
Basically I have an LED "festoon" bulb in my interior light. It usually works absolutely fine - turns on when you open doors, turns on when you push the knob on the lights.
Turned it on tonight to get a CD out of the glovebox and couldn't turn it off. Removed the bulb and put it back in and it now emits a constant dim glow when "off" and comes on bright when the door is opened. Also can't control it with the knob inside.
Ideas please? As I've taken the bulb out atm

The one and only probably as they will then void my warranty for anything else I've done 
Gonna try to find a standard bulb and see if that fixes the issue.

I have a similar problem, the buttons to turn lights on work, but when opening doors the interior light doesnt come on.
Fuses is fine, no door things are stuck, bulbs work :/ i gave up

Have tried a standard festoon bulb and it does the same - except stays on all the time. Have a feeling its a short or something.
Have got service due in a month so will delay this a week and then take it to Vaux for a warranty/service raping
