Good morning,

I attached a diagram for you to view.

There is a relay in the convenience center for the dome light. It may be stuck closed.

Make sure the headlight switch is not commanding it on as well.

I attached the picture. There are only a couple of relays. They should be marked. If they are not, remove them one by one until the dome light goes out.

Okay, now we are in a different question. I will answer this one time. Site rules state one problem per question.

After this, start a new question.

There is a power to the 1 wire for the switch. When you apply the parking brake it closes the circuit and the light comes on. When you release it, the circuit opens and the light goes out. There has to be a power to the switch wire.

It has nothing to do with the door switches.

I see you posted a new question for an explanation. You can just continue here if you like.

Yes, one is positive and the other is negative.
