[QUOTE="kevinbakon, post: 928612, member: 66834"] I have yet to have Ford check into my issue, but I have however noticed a couple of things . . . in my troubleshooting: Something dawned on my . . . I have the "Message Center" which would have indicated WHICH door is not closing/latching/contacting correctly . . . the thing is, I've never received any type of notification. Under normal circumstances, if I put the truck in park & removed the key but not opened any doors, the dome light comes on . . . this seems to be the exact same behavior I'm experiencing, but while driving. To test, every time the light comes on while driving, I jiggle the key (in the ignition, while driving) and immediately the interior lights dim . . . every singe time! So my question at this point is, have any Gen 2 owner experienced the same as I? what exact part was the culprit? Should I check any fuses? . . . short of taking it to Ford (btw, my warranty is expired) what recommendations should I try? Thanks in advance, Kevin [/QUOTE]
