interior dome light problem
99 f350 long bed 7.3 diesel
Sorry to he posting another one of these but I wasn't finding any answers in the ones I had read threw.
For beginners I bought the truck with the problem. I have a shell so the bed lights have been removed or burnt out. Haven't checked.
I have already tried the WD40 trick in the door latches and nothing
No door ajar light. Most likely burnt out since there's nothing on the dash when the door is open.
The odd ball thing and someone referenced it but didn't discuss it: the dome light does go out if I am going 10-15 mph but turns on when I am breaking to a stop.
With the bulb removed I can hear the relay activate and deactivate with the speed.
So any ideas?

problem solved
I resprayed all the door latches with carb cleaner,let them dry out then resprayed with WD40 and went on an hour drive to make sure my mom was doing ok and let her see the grandson. Lights still acted up on the way there.
Once I was coming home it worked itself out.got off the freeway and noticed the light didn't come on. Played with the switches and opened/closed all the doors multiple times. Works like a charm.guess I just needed more resolve and patience.
Now onto the next problem.

I have a similar problem. My dome light doesn't come on. It won't come on with the dimer switch either. I changed the relay and no change. I did run a jumper to the second post where the relay would plug in and the light worked fine. I have tried spraying the drivers door latch with carb cleaner and WD 40 but nothing worked so far. Any ideas would be appreciated.
