sounds like the outside temp sensor which I believe is located behind the front grille, infront of the radiater towards the top (could be wrong there mind). Check the wireing, connectors and sensor body for damage and poor connections.

if your internal lights arenot coming on as they should when you open a door try all doors one at a time and see if it's the same on all, if it is, and the interior light isn't switched off, then I dunno. if it's just one or two doors then I suspect the switch.

Regards. Mark.

And it's so obvious it hurts but it's caught me out a time or two, check the bulbs are ok.

This is a known problem in early HeVAC ECUs and they do need to be replaced.
