My Interior light does not go off when you close the doors. It turns on, but the only way to turn it off is with the switch on the interior light it's self.
I have a 2006 Xb everything else works and no warning lights on the dash.
any help for this problem?
Thanks

does the xB have a 3 position switch? I know on the xD and tC there is an on/door/off switch on the dome light. Putting it on "door" is what makes the light go off after you close the door. Maybe that part of yours is broken if that doesn't work.

Mine has the 3 position switch, on off and door.
On it stays on all the time
Off it is off all the time
Door it turns on when you move it to the door positon and stays on even when you close the door. It just never goes off, unless I move the swith to the off position.
It used to dim down then you closed the door then went off went off.

sounds like the door position switch is bad then.
prolly have to find a new or used dome light. should be able to find one on here or ebay that you could get for cheap.

didn't see one on ebay, doing a quick search.
your xB still under warranty though, right? take it to dealership if it is. If not, they run like $28 at TRD sparks. . . http://www.trademotion.com/partlocator/index.cfm?action=getJointLocator&siteid=214631&chapter=&Sectionids=0,2695&groupid=2706&subgroupid=2710&componentid=0&make=37&model=xB&year=2006&graphicID=8555310&callout=8&catalogid=2&displayCatalogid=0

idk, just my best guess.
