What I did or best way to check if it's a miswiring is park the car where you could really see the ambient light come on like in a garage or a low light parking lot at night. Inside the car with the doors closed and ambient lights on, check the faulty door. Check every ambient light (under trim, door handle, side door pocket) on that door to see if it's lit. If one of them is not lit up, that's the connection that is suppose to be connected to the puddle light. My puddle light was connected to my door handle ambient light. I than disassembled the door panel and had to reconnect the wiring to its right place. Hope this helps.
