When I open the door the dome light comes on, put the key in, turn it, light should turn off right? Wrong! Light stays on. If I wait till the light turns off then put the key in, it'll stay off. Can't figure it out 2000 black CSVT 2125 of 2150

I wiggled the pinswitch in the door, the dome came back on till I closed the door, as it should. WD40 sprayed in each pinswitch after some excercise of the switches fixed it. This procedure might help you. I figured out the light was running off the timer (from pulling the door handle) then going off because the pinswitch was not on from corrosion. My car sat around a while.
