Yes yes yes! This is an issue running rampant in this model. Disconnecting then reconnecting the battery can sometimes temporarily solve it. Ive had KW look at my truck once and they couldnt find the reason why this is happening. They updated software and I still have this issue. Until I have another reason to go into the shop, I just taped cardboard over the lights so I can drive in the rain at night and still see. I know of a lot of T680 drivers who are having or have had this issue. I noticed this morning when the rain died down and the lights dimmed some that if I played with the power window, the dome light on the side I play with flickers. I would love to know if and how people have solved this! I had this truck for a year before I started having this problem and I got this truck brand new.

When I was in the shop once with mine a mechanic asked me if I had any problems with "lights blinking". I said no, but he looked down the channel in front of the drivers door with his flashlight. The best I can remember this would be the same area where your CB coax runs down too. He said there were connections in that area that would fill up with water and short out occasionally. Kenworth should know about this. If your dealer doesn't, call the one in Lincoln Nebraska and ask for a mechanic named Doug.

Yes, on my last truck I did. They replaced all the lights on the front of the cab and it kinda helped.

Anyone know why my dome light doesn't come on with any door open but all work manually with switch on?

Check your menu settings and make sure "dark cabin" is turned off. If it's activated the dome lights will not come on when the doors are opened.
