Dome light problem

[mndude07]

Ok so I know virtually nothing about the wiring on my cb7, and the problem is when the dome light switch is in the middle, its supposed to be off when the doors are closed, yet when both doors are closed, the dome light won't go off, and my door ajar light stays on for the passenger side, even though i slammed the hell out of it, so its definately closing all the way (it was doing this before I slammed it, so I didn't knock anything loose).

So, which section would that mean the connection problem would be in? Seems to me like the problem would be within the door itself, but could it be somewhere else?

check the pin at the door jam just under the striker. take it off by unscrewing it. DONT loose the connector that is attached to it.

now disconnect it, does the dome light turn off (make sure other doors is closed).

thats usually the issue, 13 bucks at the dealership for those

Yeah man, two of mine or broken... except they don't recognize when the door is open. I hate those little things.

its called a door pin switch.

when your door shuts it pushes it down, slamming it does nothing but damage your car.

replace the switch and your problem should be solved like the other guys said.
