Dome Light Sometimes not Turning Off
Tuesday, October 04, 2005 6:28 PM
okay, so i got lambo door hinges installed a while back, and for some strange reason, my dome light sometimes won't turn off inside the car. Now, i've narrowed it down to the passenger door because sometimes if it doesn't turn off, i will open the door, and close it again, and it will turn off...sometimes it doesn't, and i have to pull the fuse to keep the battery from dying. I didn't install these hinges myself, but i did redo the wirring connections to make sure they were proper (and they were, because the problem still exists). So what i'm wondering is, is there a sensor or something in the door latch that might be causing this? The behaviour of the dome light indicates that the door isn't full closed (but it is). Anyone have any ideas? TIA

Only thing it could be is the door pin... and with lambos, that area is subject to coming away from the body.

Your shop sucks Seriously... who installed them?

wow thats messed up.. anyway hood news loosen the actual latch on the door jam and push it back just a hair and tighten it try to close ur door it should help if not close ur door turn on alarm or whatever and try to push the door from the outside n hold it for like 5sec to see if the light goes off.. try to put ur finger on it with the door open first those pins go bad sometimes.
