I'm not sure what model you have so I can't be sure. Usually the red light (which also controls the courtesy lamp) is located in the door latch mechanism within the door. Failing that, it could be a wire to it.

You also say that the central locking went funny. Have you tried the electric window and mirror (if electric). If more than one system is faulty, it points to wiring, possibly at the wiring multi plug at the door hinge.

Have a check and give more details.
