Interior Lamp Will Not Turn Off

[richardghia]

Hi Guys, I'm having some problems with my interior lamp. It is refusing to turn off. I have tried the following:

Switch to 'door' position, close all doors and lock the car. The lamp stays on.

Switch to 'off' position. The lamp stays on.

Disconnected and reconnected the Battery and re-tried the above. The lamp stays on.

I've seen a few other threads on other forums talking about faulty door latches but surely this cannot be the case if it will not switch off even when put in the 'off' position.

I've removed the bulb as not to drain the Battery. Any ideas?

Have you recently changed the bulb before problem started?

No, I haven't changed it in the time I have owned the car, around 18 months.

No worries, it's fixed itself. I took the dome lamp down and it started working properly again.
