either:

- one of your door contact switches is broken/dirty.  If this is the case,
your interior light would also come on and stay on.

-  bad interior light delay controller.  On my 90q this is a blue relay and
it WAS bad.  my interior lights would not come on at all.. I had to push on
the relay a bit to get it to work.  I'll probably take it apart and clean it
when  I get a chance.

-  something else I'm not thinking of.


for now, just pull the relay with the little "speaker" in the end of it.
There are two of them.. one is for the oil pressure warning system, the other
is for the door chime.  it is located in the auxillary relay panel.
