Check the door locks take off the trim panel on the doors and go to the latch at the back of each door and check that the wire is connected and that it's clean this is a ground when the door is opened the interior lights come when you close the door they shut off if the wire attached to the locking latch in each door is broken or corroded or unplugged they can fall off the lights inside will stay on it only takes 1 bad wire for this to happen also check to see if you door pin switches when you open the door by the hinges on the frame about halfway up you'll see a pin or button like switch on all doors again one bad one is all you need and the running board lights are probably on the same circuit oh yeah there's a tailgate latch to and or a pin switch so take off all panels and look for the bad wire and in the frames where the doors close in the front and back doors those pins are in the front part of the body where the door post are the rear tailgate it's in the frame on the side near the top to stop draining the battery till you find it take out the interior light fuse for over night parking

SOURCE: 1999 Mercury Sable Dome Light won't shut off

Check the dash light dimmer switch. Perhaps it's set to have the interior lights on, when you turn the dash lights all the way bright, turning it a little more turns the interior lights on. Let us know how you make out.

How to shut dome light off on 2002 mustang

First, try turning the switch on the dome light to a position until the dome light goes off when the door is closed. Beyond that, you've got an electrical problem. . .

2005 Dodge Durango interior dome lights will not shut off

One of the switches on the doors or tailgate are broken. Look at the switches (located on the door or the door pillars) and see if one of them has been broken or stuck. This switch turns lights off when depressed.

Dome Lights

The interior light module is not timing out. The possibility of the interior lights staying on could run your battery down over night. Replace the interior light module.

The dome light is stuck on and the door ajar light is on on the dash all doors are shut along with tailgate glass. Had this prob once before with the tailgate ?

Check you door jamb switch. Its the switch/button that is pressed when door is shut. Open one door at a time press switch and hold to see if goes off. when you get to the one that is broke nothing will change. Can get part at local parts store for around $30.00.

Even when doors and tailgate shut the door warning

with the door open push the door switch and tailgate switch closed manually. if the warning stays on, replace the switch. if it stops, adjust the switch to make sure the door or tailgate pushes it down far enough.

The tailgate will close and lock but the interior dome lights won't go out and the instrument panel says the tailgate is still open.., please help !!!

The little switch that gets pushed in when door closes is faulty. Once this is replaced you should have no further problems.

Dome lights won't turn off

Been having a problem with the dome lights on a 99 chevy blazer. Still can't figure out what the problem is. There is a dome light overide button located under the dimmer wheel. When I push the overide button in the dome light goes off, but when I open any of the doors the dome light will not come on. When the overide button is out the dome light stays on all the time and will not turn off even though every door is closed. I checked all the pushbuttons and everything tests good. Has anyone had this problem and know how to fix it?
