Is the Headlight Dimmer lever all the way in the up position which would keep the interior lights on all the time?

If it is, lower the switch lever a little and the interior lights will shut off.

Mine did the same thing a few years ago. The door ajar switch was not engaging all the way, I placed a small shunt in between the switch and the body, whamo, fixed the problem.

First step would be to find out under what, if any, conditions it will go off.

Did it go off when you unplugged both door switches and the hatch switch?

You know the switch has an adjustment, right?
