Weird wiring issue: keyhole, interior lights

Been scratching my head over a weird electrical issue with the car.

My interior dome lights plus the ignition/keyhole light are not working and its not the bulbs. The dome lights dont work at all, ie when opening the door, pressing the button, etc. Both door handle keyhole lights are not working also. I recently unplugged my my airbag module under the dash but couldn't trace the wiring diagram to confirm if that's the cause.. BRIEFLY tried plugging it in once but that didnt fix it.

I am away from the car to double check if the box is the cause, but meanwhile was hoping if a wiring guru could shed some light. What single issue can cause an issue sending power to my dome lights, door handle lights and ignition light)? My gauge cluster lights, A/C panel lights do work. I hate wiring and I'm bored so here's to a new electrical thread.

Thanks

The room fuse provides power to the circuit you're having issues with, did you check it with a multimeter?
