For awhile whenever I hit a bump in the road my Dome Light flashes. One might think this isn't a big deal, but for 60 miles a day and night time driving, it is really really annoying. I tried to pull the fuse to the light, but that took out my light, my alarm, and my power door locks. Any ideas what the problem is and how to fix it?
Hey! I have the same problem as well. I have checked both doors and the hatch, and i cant figure it out. Its not as bad as last year, but its still constantly annoying me too. I'd like to know too.
My guess would be that there is something wrong with the switch in the mirror. I don't know how to disassemble it, but I'd give it a shot if it was doing that to me. Or, just get another one from ebay or something.
i had this same exact thing happen to me - my hatch wasnt closed all of the way.. when i hit a bump, the hatch lifted up causing the lights to flash on and off.
^Yeah, I accidentally left the hatch unlatched once and it took about 10 miles to figure it out. Every bump I hit would flash the interior lights. It freaked me out until the next bump made the whole hatch open up about 6 inches reavealing the road noise at 50 mph... [img]graemlins/slap.gif[/img]

Keep in mind the back light also comes on, not just the mirror.
And as for the hatch no being closed all the way, this has been going on for a looong time now and I am SURE it is closed. Plus, when I leave the hatch unhatched on accident, it makes a thump noise when it comes back down again.
one of the switches are loose or going bad. If worst comes to worse pull put the bulbs. Put a tap light in the center of your car...hahaah.

Which switch could it be? If I get on the back and pull up the hatch when it's closed, it doesn't come up, nor does the light turn on. I don't get this stuff.
Well, it could be one of the door switches also. It may not come "on" if you jest pulling up on it. If the inside of the switch is going bad, or if the mount of the switch is loose, it will most likly do it when the car in moving. Well let me ask you this, the manual switch you use to turn the dome light on. Roll that switch down jest a hair, MAYBE, its right on the verage of being on, and the movement of the car at times is jest enough to trigger it. Does this make since? let me know.

I think I know what you are talking about bobby, I'll give it a try and post up whenever I go on a drive later. Thank you for your time to try to help me.
same problem here. when you close the hatch pull up on it then shove it back down and it should click. or check to make sure the little lever on the switch didnt slide back a little.
Get some electric contact cleaner spray (or WD40 in a pinch) and load up both the door switches and the hatch switch. Work the switches a few dozen times each by hand to clean the inside of the switches.
Hey everyone! I've been trying to remove my transmission for two days now! I need to replace the clutch. Only thing I've got left holding the transmission...
Hello, so I changed the front bearings on the bird and the ABS inoperative light came on. I made a mistake of not removing negative battery cable. Now...
I usually have to double, triple my headlight switch for them to come up on my 97 Firebird. I cleaned all connections. Could it be the headlight switch...
