An interior lamp that fails to light when a door opens, or a switch that has stopped clicking, are classic signs of tired contacts in the 1981-84 240/260. Since these are 12V cars, troubleshooting is often simple: measure the voltage up to the switch, check the door switch ground, and clean or replace the part that is making intermittent contact.

This group includes switches for the cabin and instrument panel, door switches for the interior lamp, warning lamps and bulb sockets, bulbs, cigarette lighters, a sensor, plus nut washers for mounting. A common check point on this job is the door switches – they oxidize and stick over the years, which both kills the cabin lamp and can cause a constant on-state that drains the battery.
The 1981-84 range falls between the 1981 facelift and 1986, and the design of switches and panels can differ from earlier 240/260. So compare the shape and contact pins against the original before replacing.
