The main issue with lighting is loose connection of the fuses in the control box - give them a wiggle and see if the lights come on - chec the connections at the back of the switch also - Marty

Yep, the fuses are always a good place to start.  If you're using the original bulbs I'd switch to using the low energy LED bulbs you can get off ebay for £2.50.

You can also get the led bulbs from the c5owners forum for the same sort of price.
