We also have had some strange light behavior. Besides the fact that sometimes the light dims out when you close the door and sometimes it just shuts off, we also have something weirder. Sometimes when the doors are shut AND locked, the cockpit light will come on by itself while we're driving. The way I turn if off is by turning on and off the light over the storage compartment which makes them both go off. Strange but true (but D's are always full of little interesting things anyway...) :) ~Rick E. VIN 11174 P.S. I suppose I should note that we haven't changed anything in our electrical system yet, so I guess it's not surprising that it'd doing weird things (?).
