Alfa 147 Interior Lights Issue

Hello,
My 147's interior courtesy lights have stopped working, except the one in the boot. They can't be turned on manually either. Bulbs are okay, it's the lack of 12v feed that's the problem.
Is MES able to look for the source of the problem? I've got a modified ELM cable with several adapters.
TIA

Unless there is a specific error code then all MES will be able to do is turn the various interior (front / back / boot ) lights On/Off via the Actuators menu.
If the lights operate as commanded then you know the Body Computer and Power to the lighting circuits would appear to be OK. If they don't then you are looking at some form of power failure (fuse?) or other switch/wiring issue.

Thanks, that answers my question..... If I can tell MES to turn on/off the lights then that'll be a big help, just couldn't find the correct actuator as they seem engine related. There is no fuse in that circuit so if it is a feed issue then I'll just run a new wire up the A-pillar.

You need to connect to the Body Computer (BCM) and there you will find various body actuators.
