You're serious. there's a switch on the light, 3 positions.
always off, on, and on with door open. or the bulb could be out.
good luck

Guys, they said there is no such thing as a stupid question in school.

play with the switch, if the light doesn't come on replace the bulb.

Possibly a bad fuse?


Does the switch work? Have you tried it? Shit, did you KNOW there was a switch? Just trying to get to the bottom of things here. You weren't very specific and just left yourself wide open for a good flaming. Seriously though, does the switch work?

No, they aren't supposed to come on, at least mine don't. Communication is important.

Play nice boys and girls...

Noob Bashing isn't tolerated here anymore, and I'm dieing to ban someone

Heck, I'm a Mega Mod, and even tho' I've read my owners manual a couple of times, I didn't find out about the moving armrest on the center console for months after I got my CL (found it by accident too)...

Ha, thats funny as hell about the armrest. I
yelled at my buddy when he pulled on it. I was like, "You Idiot, You broke it" Of course I got made fun of when it slide right back into place, he just looked at me and called me an idiot.

I have a 2000 TL also and never caught it on that car either. So don't feel bad, it took me about 1.5 years to figure it out.

thats exactly what happened to me, except my friend was freaking out more than me...he thought he destroyed it and I was like eh whatever it shouldn't be that expensive to replace then someone in the back was like...i think its an arm rest

My parents just got a 06 honda pilot and I keep trying to pull out foward the center arm rest ...but it doesnt extend like the CL, it gets me everytime I drive it.

I think those are called map lights. I replaced the yellowy stock bulbs with PIAA bulbs, now they look whiter.

Mine are not too bright, you must have used stronger bulbs.
