    We had exactly the same problem with Kirsten's CM. Did everything that you did and still couldn't get them to come on. Never got to the bottom of it so can't give you much help I'm afraid. Bizarrely it started after her can had been in for a service so I started wondering if something had been knocked but like you, realised they were on fine when driving!

    It was serviced in july but its its only in the past few months thats its been happening. I wondered if it might be because i put in canbus numberplate lights. I was also gunna try using the spare key. Not sure wether or not that would make a difference

    It could well be down to the number plate lights but it'd be worth trying the spare key first
