Interior Dome light stays on when door shut

2007 Honda CR-V. Interior dome light stays on when door shut and switch on "door." Light always stays off in off position and on in on position. But when on door setting, it stays on after door closed. Tried pressing the switch in driver door jam and light dims/flickers but doesn't go off. All other interior lights work fine. Need new switch? Blown fuse for just one light?

    Bad news. New door jamb switch installed. Dome light still stays on. When I push sensor button in, dome light dims slightly, same as old sensor. I tested all four door sensors the same way with the same result. Dome light dims slightly.

    So door sensors not the problem. What else could cause dome light to stay on? The switch on light itself does turn light on and off. Keeping off so don't drain battery by staying on. I am not getting any open door light on dash instrument.

    I may have discovered bigger problem. I had my cracked windshield replaced 8 months ago at a glass windshield shop. When I picked up car I noticed installers cracked plastic piece on dash covering radio/DVD. They ordered replacement from Honda and put in a week later. I complained that a piece of weather stripping was loose at the bottom of driver's side windshield. They said "no big deal."

    I was just now out cleaning windshield and noticed the weather stripping on driver's side windshield was loose and seperated from that beam. Inside are wires for driver's air bag I think. I found mud and dirt caked in and connectors out of socket. Rain has been leaking in there for months. So quite possible I had no air bag connection for months.

    I will get to Honda Tuesday (Monday is Holiday). This is serious. And I was rear-ended 2 days ago while stopped at red light. I was thinking "good thing not hard enough to explode air bag". Punched a hole in my rear bumper and my tailpipe left a round indentation on their front bumper. Smashed in their grill and big damage around their driver's side headlight. Already got estimate for new bumper and exhaust system inspected because tailpipe struck.

    Is this possible cause of dome light problem? Electrical connection messed up because that weather stripping loose and wires exposed to rain.

    Bad news indeed. The interior lights may be controlled by the body control module. I would say that at this stage, you need the diagnostic skills from a good local, auto-electrician. They can connect it to a high level scan tool.

    This mentions a unit under the dash

    Yes, that does sound likely. Modules need to be kept dry and vibration free. Get Honda to fix all the bad items, windshield sealing, that MICU module under the dash as well as the crash damage. Ask if they will do you a deal and a report to give to the windshield place, with a view to recovering the cost.

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.

Honda Jazz (2007) with a non-working interior light

Jacker

conner you are 10 years late.
so manual on fails
and door open dome fails, and the switch not set to ALL MOdes off?
hhhhhhhhhhhh read the users guide on dome lamp.
oops no jAZZ in USA, so no books
most cars 2007 the lamps are BCM body brain operated
and have no dedicated fuse to DOME at all, like seen in the 1990s' back.
the best I can guess is the head lamp switch if you looked close has dome option. there.
on, off, auto
off makes it dead all the time
auto makes door switchs turn on dome.
most cars are in fact fully programmable by you and is cover in the jazz operator guide in the glove box day1, new, lost it?
HONDA has it ,ask them, it is free.

here are the words you never read,in the glove box
as you can sees this is no 1990 are it has a brain now.
that fools many now.(then) this magic prevents battery dead.
we love it, for sure stranded by lamps left on.

Dome light is out on 2005 CR-V.

Take a look at both the door switch and the dome light switch.

Jiggle the switch on the passenger's door and see if the interior light
flashes. Spray some silicone in it if it's sticking. Single phillips
screw will remove it if you want to look at how simple the mechanism is.

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?

Interior light is not on whrn doors open

Did you check the switch next to the interior light on the roof? Honda's have a switch position that turns off the dome light completely, so it won't work when the doors are opened or not shut tightly. There are 3 positions, dome light on all the time, dome light on only when door is opened, or ajar, and dome light off. I must say, I love Honda's, but I find this switch annoying!

Dome light

Might sound funny but check the rheostat knob that dims the interior lights, sounds like its set to always on. Check the dome light too, some have always on and on when door is open settings.
