Sounds like a bad earth at the lamp itself. When you open a door - you're just earthing the circuit via the door switches. So - if it won't switch on the main light - sounds like the earth in the lamp housing itself isn't earthing......... |

i had a problem with mine not so long ago. i removed the unit from the car and then put it back, making sure the screws are in properly and it worked again. think that was a case of a dodgy earth, might be worth a try |
