    Question Dome light turns on when turning headlights on???

    When I am driving and turn the headlights on, the dome light comes on for about 5 seconds then goes out. If I turn the headlights back off and back on again, the dome light does not return, just the initial time. Anyone had this one before??

    It's little aliens hidden in the dome trying to abduct you through the beam of light!

    You might try visually inspecting every fuse under the hood & in the passenger compartment.
    I've heard of Isuzus doing some weird azz things when the fuse from a seemingly unrelated system blows...that's my WAG for the day...
