Angry Lights Are Still on NO FIX YET!

Its been several months and i havent figured out why my dome lights are still on.. Right After i replaced my truck strut they stayed on. I dont want to take off my strut and see if thats the problem because it was a hassel getting that thing on with a paper clip and that little hole. Has this ever happended to someone before?

I have the same problem, while trying to find a frayed window wire, i discovered why my dome lights stay on, and it was indeed my door ajar in the driver rear. - Assuming you have a 4door, take off the kick trim on the drivers and passenger side and check inside the B-pillars on the bottom. For some reason Chrysler put the connectors for your rear doors and door ajar switches right next to a small hole in your rockers, and if your rockers are rusting it makes those connectors and wires easy to corrode. - Hope this helps.
