I have a 2002 Sport that has been having some weird dome light issues. The interior dome light will not work both when turned on or when a door opens. However, if I remove the bulb and then place it back in the slot the light will work, BUT (only if a door is open or the switch it turned to the on position when the bulb is returned). Once the door is shut If I take out the bulb and return the bulb with the switch turned off and the doors shut the fuse will blow when the door is opened... This process of working or not working will repeat over and over....... I am really not sure where to start looking..... Any advice is welcomed!

I would check the dome lamp housing. pull it down and inspect the wiring to it or the housing itself. something is shorting out. The door switch is only a ground if you don't have keyless entery if you do then the ETACS supply's the ground to the light. so I wouldn't suspect the door switch. does the rear lamp turn on or the door puddle lights turn on?

I also have dome light issues. My two front door switches/sensors are stuck in - as if the door were closed-. One of these days I'll look into it. But for now I just deal with it.

clean the metal contacts for the bulb, and pinch them together a bit more. the bulb is held too loose and sometimes it makes contact and sometimes it does not. see if that helps.
