Hello guys.

I'm having problems with my doom light.
Have no problems with any door (ajar).
The problem is that they are on all the time.

Do I have to reprogram with Forscan?
Any other tips?

(Excuse my bad English, is from Sweden)

Expedition 5.4 Eddie Bauer.

The switch on the dash (panel dimmer control) will cause your DOME light to be on at all times when it is in the very top position. Locate the switch, and see if it is in the very "top" position.....(rolled to the top).

Did not work...
Must be something else that makes it glow.

Even my side mirrors are lit all the time, took out the lights so as not to drain the battery.

Some internet replies have included spraying lubricant on all the switches, doors and dash, related to the interior lights.

If you intend to trouble-shoot this problem, you will need a 2003 Expedition Shop Manual (2 volumes) available on CD or print (check eBay), or internet download.

The INTERIOR LIGHTING is covered in volume 1,
section 417-02-01.
