i have a 98 Accord 2.3l Automatic
Problem: Dome light never shuts off all the way(dims, but dosnt go off) same with the courtesy door lights and the door ajar on the dash cluster.
Story: not much of one. i open the door everything comes on like it should. i close the door, everything goes off... BUT the dome light, driver door, door ajar.
these lights refuse to turn off. They do dim like it reads the door is shut, but does not turn off...
Door Open
Door Close
Door Ajar Light
it was hard for me to get a picture of the door ajar light dimming, but as you see with the dome, the door light and the ajar light do the same.
The dome light i think is a short, cause when i put on 'always on' i have the tap it or shake it to actualy keep it on.
ive checked fuses they all look good.
The door switch seems to work cause it reads the door is closed by dimming the lights, just dosnt shut them off.
ive used searched and can not come to a conclusion of what it could be. Dont worry i have not stopped searching, but a lil help would be appreciated. im thinking bad grounding or its shorting out? idk
just looking to find the cause and fix.
Just saw where this is posted, Sorry if its in the wrong spot.....
