Talking 2006 GS300 Radio and dome lights not turning on

Hello. My name is Jason. I have looked at various threads that have helped me alot In the past for my 2000 GS300. I have added a 2006 GS300 AWD to my fleet and It needs some attention. I have a Radio that is inop and dome lights that do not turn on when doors open (the 2 small leds in the front and rear)I have checked all the fuses and they all check good with a test light. If anyone has had this happen let me know. thanks for any help and I am glad to be a part of this great forum.

The lights only come on when the doors open if you press the "DOOR" button on the overhead console where the LEDs are.

I dont have nav but the screen works, bluetooth works, radio is dead. I did notice the display button on the steering wheel is inop also. when audio button depressed it says off on the screen.

Thanks BinaryJay, I found that button, domes work great.

No Mark Levinson. As far as I can see the fuses are all good. If the amp was bad would the radio at least light up? I spoke to a Lexus dealer and they said they never see a failed radio. Its just the standard radio in it. Maybe a Pioneer?
