Ahhhh, just ready to go to a Christmas party and my door light on the dash or interior light won't shut off. I've tried time and time again to open and shut all the doors with no luck. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Brian

Check the button near the light switch. There is two, one for the driving lights and one for the interior light.

Same thing has happened to mine twice, both after a pretty thorough washing.

First time it was front passenger door, I pushed the switch in with my hand and then shut the door, that fixed it.

Second time I tried the same thing with all five switches with no luck. But in the morning it was fine. Dried out I guess.

You can turn the dome light off with the switch next to the headlights, otherwise it goes off when you start driving but comes back on each time you stop, what a pain. Even if you turn the light off, door chime repeats each time you stop.

Sounds like there may be some issues with the switches.

HummBebe,
I checked that but it must have been one of the doors or switches that was causing the light to stay on. It finally went off after about 45 minutes worth of driving. Thinking maybe water got in somewhere and froze. I'll have the dealer check things out when I take it in for service. Maybe a bad switch somewhere.
Thanks for the quick reply!
