Front Overhead Light Problem

I'm having a problem with my 04 TL. The front overhead driver's side light comes on intermittently, paticularly when I'm making a turn, which is then followed by a audible ding. What do you think is causing this?

It sounds like the door switch for the lights might be misadjusted/dirty. When the car body shifts/frame twists, the switch thinks you opened the car door (light goes on) with the key in the ignition ("ding" tone).

A couple of threads mentioned this before. Try cleaning the contact points and turning that door switch in its housing to see if that corrects the problem.
