I was awoken by the alarm going off on my 2003 Acura TL. I ran out front pressing buttons on my key fob, and eventually the alarm stopped. After that time, BOTH of my key fobs are no longer able to LOCK the car (I have had both working for many, many years). So, it's not the battery in the key fobs, since the odds of them getting low at the exact same moment are low. Both key fobs can unlock the doors and the trunk. Strangely, the dome light stopped automatically turning off at the same time.

Is there a place under the dash on the drivers side (where the remote sensor it) where there is also a wire to the dome light? Could a wire have been kicked loose that impacted both functions?

Has anyone experienced this, or have ideas where to start looking for a fix? I can certainly manually lock the car, and just leave the dome light off, but this is troubling. I really miss having the dome light come on at night.

Thank you.
