I'd start with the switches, check them, make sure they have good ground, check the hatch switch too. Oh, wait, first, are you sure you didn't bump the switch to turn them on all the time? On a 92 I think it is having the dimmer slide all the way up.

I got water in the door jamb push buttons, for the lights, and the lights stayed on until they dryed out.

When mine did that it was the passenger key lock was not at the 12 o'clock position. The courtesy lights come on when you turn the key.
