Mine has done the same in the past. There are several threads on here through the search engine tab. I went the easy route, and I was told to shoot some WD-40 into the latch areas of all the doors. It worked for me and haven't had any problems since.

If its the same thing the interior lights would stay on even while driving right? at least mine did until the WD-40 was used. That was done in the middle of the summer.

No problem, that is what evryone on here is for.


After I thought about it some more, I would sometimes close the rear barn doors/glass and the lights would stay on. I would go and open and close all the passenger doors and the lights would go back off. Wierd, but works.

My 05 has the same thing, but the lights only turn off when I park backwards on my driveway uphill. I have slammed all the doors and nothing worked until the backwards up the driveway trick.

That would seem to indicate that your rear hatch is the problem - the incline probably puts just enough pressure on the hatch to activate the switch.
