Camaro interior lights won't quit
My 1996 V6 Camaro developed a new habit last night. The interior lights will not dim after I turn on the ignition, and the buzzer sounds. When I take the key out and close the door, the lights are supposed to stay on a few seconds, then dim out. This does not happen. I figure a faulty switch, but all three, (Doors and trunk), seem to be moving with no problems. I need to drive this car more than I need to have interior lights. Is there a quick fix to stop this from happening?

Are you sure the light switch is not stuck in the "on" position? Does the car tell you a door is open? (meaning a door switch is broken) If not, check all switches... is the on/off switch in the dome light or in the dash.. if in the dash, try disconnecting it? |

When all doors and trunk are closed, and the car is on, I still get the buzzer indicating an open door. I am going to assume that it is a door switch, because the trunk does something a little different if it is open. I tried to manually depress each switch to try and find the guilty party, but with no success. A neighbor told me to look for a accessory fuse and yank it. So now I at least don't have to worry about the battery running down. This all happened last night, and I yanked the battery cable, in the rain, to keep my car from dying on me. I put the cable back on, and it works like no problem. Not wanting to take any chances at school, I yanked the fuse. I put the fuse back on when I left class to see if it was okay. Guess what? Doing it again. And I did go to both doors with engine running, and played with the door plunger. Nothing budged. So I took out the fuse and went on my merry way. I'd like to get it fixed, since it is one of those things that if you don't, you'll need it. |

Sorry, I was busy today. It act's like the door is open, even through I depress the plunger to "close" the door. Or even if I actually close the door itself. I have a faulty plunger, I just need to figure out how to disable it, and to find out which one. I eliminated the hatchback, by the fact that when it is open I have no buzzer, normally. So it has to be the plunger on either the passenger or driver side of the car. |
