I'm having issues with my rear bulb lights. Could some one please confirm the correct wattage please. The BMW manual states 10w is this right?

Also my interior lights have stopped working when opening both doors.
But if you manually flip the switches on each side they're fine.

Any ideas?

Many thanks

The rear light is rated at 10W, all others, including the brake, indicator, reversing and fog lamps are 21W.
