Dome light and 5 beeps

I have a 1999 mazda b2500 and unable get my dome light to work. Replaced the light bulbs so not issue.

Issue #2 When I start truck I get 5 beeps for 5 times and after truck running for extended periods beeps again.

How do I repair these issues?

The 5 beeps is probably the backup warning for an air bag problem.

When you turn the key one click does the air bag warning light come on with the other idiot lights?

OK, that's why you're getting the 5 beeps then. The warning light is burned out.

As for the dome light, it's wired from the dimmer switch thru a relay and then to the dome light.

The cargo lamp is wired from the dimmer switch directly to the cargo lamp. If the cargo lamp is also not working the dimmer switch is probably not working.
