01 Civic ex manual coupe interior map light,key chime won't work nor head lightschime

My interior lights won't come on with doors open, nor my keys warning, neither when I got the keys on switch or when my head lights are on , I'd check all the fuses and all of them look fine, I changed the door jamb switch on both doors and still nothing, but the map lights will turn on if I press them does anyone have any idea of why isn't working the wires on the connector switch on the door jamb apparently looks fine, also did check the fuses under dash board and all of them are fine as well help please , by the way I used to have a xenon led headlights and they went out,so I took off the xenon led light bulbs and replace them with a just regular led light bulbs , now the new Led light bulbs are working just fine but since then the map light and key chime and head lights warning hasn't worked does anyone have any clue about it

If there is a wire loose where do I plug it back? Or how do I test the harness or how to know if the harness still works?

if you are not familiar with electrical work and using a multimeter, take to a shop.

your opening/closing the door causes stress failures on the wires, i saw insulation cracks and could feel a soft spot in the wires
tried continuity?
