I don't think it's my door switches, because with the key out of the ignition, opening either door activates the lights. The lights go off as usual after a short delay when the doors are closed. Only when the car is running do the lights refuse to turn off. A short somewhere, as davo7svt suggested, sounds to be on the right track. davo7svt, could you provide a little more detail about your diagnosis and do you think this is an easy fix for me? BTW, I have the service manual. Thanks.
