    Please forgive me if this is posted somewhere else. I looked but was unable to find the answer.
    Im having issues with the map lights over the doors.
    1 is off
    2 is on but only when the door is closed... It turns off when i open the door.
    3 is on open or closed.

    How do I attempt to fix it so it works properly and 2 becomes on when the door is open and off when closed... Like it should be.

    Are the lights on both the driver and passenger side doing it, or only on one side?

    I found something else that i never noticed before... I had a ride along today. I have power locks...the passenger door locks itself when you hit the button... It will unlock and snap back shut....i have a feeling the issues are somehow related.

    I have map light problems in my truck as well, was told it's common for wire problems up in the headliner. Mine don't come on unless you manually turn them on.

    Pulling the headliner and fixing this has been on my list of crap to do for about 2 years haha

    So what happened? Some fool took the stuff apart and rewired it backwards?
    I would not even know where to start to fix that..
