| I have a 2005 f150 and the dome light comes on by itself. i have to cut the dashlight dimmer all the way off for it to stay off. i can bump the dash and it goes out, but comes back on. with this i do not have any dash lights at night. it has been in the shop twice for this and not been fixed. i bought extended warranty for these type things and paid a $100 deductible. it is very dangerous to drive at night without dash lights. any suggestions? *tr | |||
