my Honda CR-V interior lights stay on even with doors closed what is causing this

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools: OBD-II scanner, multimeter, socket set, and screwdrivers.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface, and the ignition is off.
• Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.

2. Inspect Door Switches

• Locate the door switches in each door frame.
• Remove any necessary plastic trim to access the switches.
• Use a multimeter to test each switch for continuity when the door is closed.
  • If a switch is faulty, replace it with a new one.

3. Check Wiring

• Inspect the wiring harnesses connected to each door for damage or corrosion.
• Repair or replace any damaged wiring.
  • Use electrical tape or heat shrink tubing to secure any repairs properly.

4. Test Interior Light Switch

• Locate the interior light switch, typically found on the overhead console.
• Remove the switch and test it for continuity using a multimeter.
  • If faulty, replace the switch with a new unit.

5. Reconnect Battery and Test

• Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
• Test the interior lights by closing all doors and checking for proper operation.
• If the issue persists, further diagnostics may be necessary regarding the body control module.
