door chimes when
Door chimes when drivers side door is open, no keys are in the ignition and no lights are on.
The passanger side doesnt cause the sound. I dont know at what point it started but i have mod my car so much that i dont know which project did it. My wife noticed it recently but it never caught my attention. Now it is really annoying when I am working in the car or cleaning it. Please help me!

That has to be an ignition cylinder problem. Normally the chimes only sound when the key is in and there's a voltage through the VATS resistor.
Weird.

I get it sometimes when I think my lights are off and they are not, I just turn them on and have the lights go up and down again. Mine does it when it is really cold out and I just was driving at night. I dont think its a big deal I just turn my lights on and then off and the chime stops.
