Default UK Beetle Door Locking Issues

Evening Gents , trying to get my head round my door locking issues and failing ....

Reality Check Please ..

Lock Test.

Car locks and unlocks with remote.
Interior light comes on with remote.
Interior or doorlight doesnt come on when drivers door opens
Interior or doorlight doesnt come on when passenger door opens
Driver door plunger does not go down if door is open when locking with remote.
Passenger door plunger does go down if door is open when locking with remote.
Doors relock after 60 secs if doors are left unopened.
Doors reclock after 60 seconds if passenger door is opened and closed
Doors DO NOT reclock after 60 seconds if drivers door is opened and closed

No Errors on VAG.com

Passenger Door faulty microswitch ?
Passenger Door possible dry joints ?

other ideas ?

To my knowledge this is how it works...

- Car locks and unlocks with remote.
- Interior light comes on with remote.
- Passenger door plunger does go down if door is open when locking with remote.
- Doors relock after 60 secs if doors are left unopened.
- Doors relock after 60 seconds if passenger door is opened and closed

... and so you do not lock yourself out ...
- Driver door plunger does not go down if door is open when locking with remote.
- Doors DO NOT reclock after 60 seconds if drivers door is opened and closed

Yes, I would check the switch; I do not think the interior lighting would be detectable by vag-com scan.
