03 Expy Electrics going Crazy

As the title says..

Door Ajar light on, washer fluid light on, Interior lights going on and off, door locks going up and down, dinging sound (sounds like the seat belt warning).

Any Ideas?

Dropped off at dealer this morning.

Poltergeists?

Sounds like there is a short somewhere, they should be able to locate it fairly easily at the dealer. Notice I said "should".

Did you try disconnecting the battery for a several minutes to see if a reset was in order, before taking to the dealer?

Similiar

I recently had a similiar problem. I was driving, came to a stop and my battery indicator on the dash and my charging system on th message center took turns going bananas along with the chime. Drove my daughters freind home (by this time I was ready to disconnect everything with lights or a chime). Got back to the house looked it over and found that the metal bracket on top of the battery was loose. Cranked it down and fixed it. Those were the only 2 indicators I had though besides the chime. The charge gauge was always fine and the self test through the message center said it was charging fine. Cheapest fix yet! $0.00
Good Luck!

I checked the Batts. and connections, all were fine. Called Dealer this afternoon so far they have change faulty door sensor. Also working on some other problems: replacing rear vent window motors, and looking at the drivers seat air, not blowing much.

Said it would be done on Friday, We shall see.

Only 28K on truck, so all will be covered under warranty.
