stupid light wont stop blinking

whenever i open the driverside door and only the driverside door and close it shut the dome light along with the light on the bottom driverside door wont stop blinking until after a minute or so. i can drive off and it'll still blink until it stops by itself. ive had to resort to completely shutting the dome lights off because its so annoying but was wondering if any of you guys experienced this with any of your cars. if anyone knows if theres an easy way to fix this i'd appreciate it alot. thanks in advance.

Wow, I've never heard of that happening, haha. Seems kinda cool, but I can see why it'd get annoying.

~Cheers~

Finally something i can answer. It recently happened to me after replacing the midranges. Try this: remove the dome light cover w/a screwdriver, and get yourself a deep socket 10mm wrench and screw the bolt securing that light/midrange bracket to the roof. I didn't want to over tighten it but since I didn't when ever I turned the light on it was always flickering due to that short. Once I tighted the bolt under the light cover it works fine. Hope that helps.
