In colder weather, no problems. In warmer weather, recently, the door ajar light comes on when no door is ajar. As a result, the dome light comes on and stays on as long as the door ajar light is on. Sometimes, opening and closing all the doors on the vehicle and jiggling a few nobs on the dimmer console switch makes it go away. Sometimes it won't come on if I put my seat belt on before starting the car engine (I have a no seatbelt light as well - no problems). When it gets chilly again, all the problems seem to go away. This has been going on off-and-on for a couple of months. The weather has not warmed up recently, so it is not happening now.
