I wrapped a micro fiber cloth around the knob and was able to twist it off fairly easy. Try that out.

Angry Dome light, dash door indicator will not come on??????

Ok guys have an issue and wanted to see if you had an idea what could be the issue. When i open my driver's door on my 2002 Acura 3.2TL no dome lights or interior lights come on and when the car is on the dash car symbol doesn't show the driver door as being open, but if I open any other doors, those door symbols light up....any Ideas??????? could it be a fuse?????
