58 Belvy, has two lights in headliner, one on each side above where windows meet.

Noticed today that lights stay on when doors are closed - this is a new problem.

When you have the door open and push the plunger that the door does, the lights dim a little but still stay on.

Do I have a bad plunger or is this a wiring glitch of some sort?

Everything else appears to be OK. Thanks.

First of all make sure the lights aren't turned on by the dome light switch where they will be on all the time even with the doors closed unless turned off manually with the switch. Otherwise you have a wiring or switch issue that is allowing current to get to the dome lights.
