[V8] FW: All right: this is odd

[32VQUATTRO]

The interior lights have two triggers. The lights have constant 12v+ at all 
times. The overhead switches provide a constant ground when turned on. The 
door pin switches provide a momentary ground which triggers a relay to 
provide a  30 sec pulsed ground. (This is why the lights stay on after you 
close the door,unless you put the key in the ignition or lock the doors with 
the key) Your problem  will  either be the relay, or door pin switches. I'm 
guessing that your door pin switches on the other doors may have been bad 
for a while and you didn't notice it till the drivers door pin switch 
failed. Hope this helps. Al
