On my z24..to your left side of dash is a wheel that is facing sideways..put your finger on it and roll it upwards..your dome light will come on..Don't forget to roll it back down..just a little bit..or your dash lights will be dark also.
Either one of the door switches is broken or the dome light switch on the dash is turned on.
Check for a defective door switch that has become ground against body or headlight switch
turn head light switch till it clicks and theses your dome light switch...
You can replace the dome light bulb in a 2002 Chevy Cavalier by first prying the dome light cover off of the light. Then, remove the bulb and replace it by twisting the bulb from the socket.
The dome light switch on the dash is on.
One of the reasons that could keep it from going off is that you have the dome light on, on your headlight switch turned on, or one of your door switches broke. Its gotta be either one or the other.
Keep messing with the headlight switch, the dome light should come on depending on the car model.
Check the fuses in your 97 Cavalier first. The dome light and the sunroof probably have a common power source.
Check these three things; Bad door jam switch ( stuck?), bad bulb, blown fuse.
Put the dome light switch on door located on the headliner to the side of the light
This should be covered under warranty. I'd take it to a dealer.This is probably due to some sort of electrical failure. It'd be fun to chase down. Easiest way to not kill your battery would be to pull the fuse for the dome light. You won't have a dome light, but your car will start in the morning too.AnswerEach door has a button switch that when the door is closed, the switch breaks the circuit for the dome light. When the door is opened, the switch is allowed to make the circuit for the dome light. The switches are usually located near the door hinges. They are held in place with a keeper nut. Check each switch for tightness. It should not wiggle or be loose. If the keeper nut backs off for some reason, the switch will become loose and when the door is shut, it may or may not break the circuit. So, check each of these switches and make sure each one is rock solid tight. AnswerDoor buttons are plastic on 2003 cavalier and do NOT have "keeper nuts". I had 1 damaged door pin but replaced both because 03 cavalier i just bought had dome light issue. Old pins get destroyed when removing no matter what. Everything was fine until i adjusted my dash lights via the dimmer switch which manually turns on/off dome light.. Now dome light flickers on and off so i am guessing it needs replacing..
it is located on the light a switch that says 12sec on and off
