Dome light flashes on door setting
 

My dome light when out on "door" just constantly flashes if I put it on "on" it stays on solid. Any thoughts?

Electrical issues are tricky. First, I have two questions:

1) Have you done anything to the electrical system recently? In particular, anything with the rearview mirror harness (e.g. BlendMount tap), changed the dome light bulb, installed an alarm system, changed anything in one of the fuse boxes (esp. the one under the steering wheel)?

2) Are any other interior lights flashing? Is the door ajar light (on the dash) staying on with the doors and trunk shut? Is the door ajar light flashing with doors and trunk shut?

Did anyone figure this out?

:slap: Get out of the archives - it was the trunk monkey messen around - ;)


humfrz

That trunk monkey is pissing me off lol

LOL!! I had forgotten about the "trunk monkey"..

Take apart the dome light. You’ll see the back of the dome light knob has a metal strip on it which corresponds to the 3 thin metal “fingers” that power the 3 dome light settings. I think over time these metal fingers get bent with use of the knob, so bend them back into place so they have a tight contact with the metal strip on the knob.

This is a different issue as its being controlled. If you hook up techstream you can see the light being activated.
