According to the vehicle handbook the interior light should stay on for a while after the doors are closed, except when the ignition is on. However on mine the light goes off straight away. Also, opening the rear doors dont activate it. Ive only had the car about 3 weeks (it was built in 2001), and its done this since I've had it.
Is there something that needs looking at do you think or is it an error on the book?
You don't mention model of car but some have delayed interior lights, some don't, also some have only front switches so back doors don't bring on interior lights. Car manuals are generally written for all models so you'd really need to check your particular spec.
