hey guys, i have a minor problem with my dome light / interior lights. When i open the doors on the sunbird the interior lights dont come on anymore. I was thinking maybe the thing that presses in when the doors open/close might be stuck, but i dont know where they are. the lights turn on/off manually with the switch, they just dont work anymore when the doors are open. not a huge problem but if my doors open the alarm wont go off because there is no voltage change in the battery when the doors are open:errr: if anyone knows what i can do to fix this, or even what could be wrong so i can check it out i appreciate it!

Thanks!!:)

its probably your door pins ( the little things taht make contact and push in when you close the door) just take them out and clean them with alchol then put them back in that should work for ya,
