Where is the switch located for luggage lights in a C5 estate please. Thank you

Welcome to the forum.

 

Looking at a wiring diagram in the Haynes manual for the 2001 to 2008 C5, the interior lighting for the boot takes a supply from the bsi fusebox and does not have a switch. Instead it is likely using the switch to open the tailgate gets the bsi to supply 12 volts to the lights.

Thanks. I will get wiring checked.

I am guessing that the lights are not working and that you have checked the bulbs are ok. Note that when the car is in economy mode the lights will not work, as well the other things that economy mode switches off such as the interior lights and radio. Does the tailgate open from the tailgate switch ?
