Passenger door light remains on; all interior lights remain on

While driving passenger door warning light came on and all interior lights came on. Checked all doors, incl tailgate, and all were firmly shut. Auto door lock also stopped working; actuator replaced 1 year ago. Can turn interior lights off manually, but dash lights and other control lights are off or very dim now. Interior lights on delay no longer go off. Either must drive with interior lights on or turn off manually and can't see dash/control lights.

Sounds more like a door light switch has gone bad. Remove the door switches one at a time with all of the other dors shut and jumper the 2 wires on the pigtail(wire harness) if there is no change, reassemble and move to the next door. When the lights go off that is the switch that has gone bad.

Where is 2005 rendezvous dashboard lights and interior lights fuse?

Check the fuse box on the right (passenger) side of the center console. You should be able to identify which fuse it is by checking in the owner's manual.

Door is showing open and interior lights stay on....when door is closed properly!!

This is because the switch mechanism on the door frame has failed and needs to be replaced. Hence the switch remains on and power will continue to flow to the interior lights until you switch them to full manual mode. The door warning light will also show as open because the warning light is operated off the same switch.

My 1992 corvette Interior light stays on

I am not sure about the 1992 since they have newer dashboard than my 86.

Anyway, I got that same intermittent issue on mine, sometime the battery was drawn in the morning sometime not, very frustrating, until i noticed that the interior light sometime was not going out as it should after 30 seconds when leaving the car in the evening.

I eventually found the timer module after removing the upper dash pad, on the passenger side. The module was just partially unplugged. Put it back in and never got problem anymore (was 6 years ago).
