Whats Keeping My Dome Lights On?

Posted by: 1991CALYPSO

This may sound stupid but my dome lights will not shut off in my Mark VII. I just noticed today when the battery was completely dead so I throw my optima battery in from my mustang and I notice all of the dome lights in the car will not shut off. Doesn't matter if the car is running or off. So I took all of the bulbs out for the time being and I disconnected the battery so I dont kill the other one. I can't think of anything that could be keeping the dome lights on. Anyone else have this problem or know how to remedy it? Thanks

Yep, had this happen to me this weekend. That's what I get for letting the wife drive the MkVII. There are 3 dimmer switches to the left of the instrument cluster. My wife had turned the left switch all the way up until it clicked. This left all the dome lights on and left me with a completely dead battery on Saturday morning. Might not be your problem, but its a place to start.
