Should the interior lights stay on?
I didnt notice the car door wasnt completely shut when I left my car. When I returned to the car a couple hours later I noticed the light on the inside door panel was on (prior to opening the door). I thought all the lights were suppose to turn off after a certain amount of time.

If you turn on the interior dome, it will spend the rest of it's life on forever...or longer.

I don't think you can do that much cleaning in the interior long enough to drain a [good] car battery.

Like he said GOOD car battery. A battery can test at around 12 volts using a meter by if you cycle the battery excessively, like from a high powerered sound system, a 5 watt bulb can possibly drain a battery, but not a good one.....

It's like it was said.. the lights shut off when the car doors are closed properly. The domelight doens't shut off, rather it dims off. U didn't leave the map lights on did you?
