Passenger door lock dont work with the remote
Interior light doesnt work when either door is opened, works fine if i tilt it forward though
Horn is almost non existant, think thats related to problem below
I dont have arch liners
I've got rust underneath

I think theres more so any of these common and how do i fix them?

Thanks everyone

switches on the doors are quite common for being dodgy for the interior light, try another switch for those. Passenger door not working on central locking could be the linkage come off inside the door or maybe the solenoid is faulty/wiring problem

horn could be the stalk,fuse, or the actual horn
arch liners...look in for sale section or put a wanted thread up or look on ebay/scrappies etc
wheres the rust? is it holed or just surface rust

The wire had came off so i put it back on, and the solenoid makes the noise when you unlock and lock but it doesnt move very far, not far enough to unlock/lock the doors :/

Ive treated all the rust with kurust and sprayed over it with hammerite direct to rust metal paint thats why its black, it doesnt look like rust anymore but it isnt very strong

The bits you`ve treated could do with another coat,i`d be more concerned with the metal next to it.

The bit with the hole is the worst bit, will it fail mot for that? thats all im worried about really....
