start with checking all the bulbs for corrosion at the contact points use di-eletric grease on all contact points if it is a wiring issue u will have to remove headliner its fairly simple if u have factory lights they will plug in to bottom of light check plugs for corrosion use a little di-eletric grease on plugs too the wiring harness runs down the passenger side windshield post and plugs in behind the passenger kick panel shud be easy to trace a bad wire with a tester
