Hi been a long time reader but finally i joined this forum believe me its very helpful ,, i got a? About how the switch for the map lights how it work (because i press the lamp buttom for the driver side light and nothing happened but if i pressed the passenger side the light from the driver side came on) so i proceed to open it to find out that the flexible circuitry is broken..any ideas on where to get one or how to fix it. Mine st 05 with a moonroof also leaking?? Thanks in advance..

Probably have to get another console. Salvage yard or eBay are good sources. Give it a shot at repairing it though, nothing to loose!

the bulbs draw a lot of power, and melt the flex pcb. So a used one may have the same problems.
Look into a LED conversion for the interior lights.
