Help! All interior lights don't shut off

All my interior lights refuse to shut off. I've just pulled the fuse for now but I lose radio due to that. It just haoppened one day not too long ago. I've messed with the door rubber stoppers also. No idea whats going on

Car model would help. Is the problem intermittent?

Check your headlight switch and pull your door switches to make sure they are still connected (IE the wire hasn't broke/disconnected and is now shorting to the body.)

The headlight switch is surprisingly common to accidentally turn on and leave on.

What kind of car do you drive? I have run in to this in my 1997 Olds Cutlass Supreme. In my case, it's probably the right front door lock. The switch for the lights and all that is in the lock itself, and I have to close the door really hard to make it work right. I would bet on something similiar in your case, either the switch in one of the doors going bad, or something like that.

Sorry I was in a hurry back there. I drive a 92 Ford Explorer. The problem has just cropped up a few weeks ago and it is not the headlight switch. I'm guessing just some wiring problem at this point but I have no idea. Again though this just happened one day when i was getting home, I shut the door and the lights don't go out.

check your light switch (with a meter), it is not uncommon for them to short internally. check your door switches as well.

Check your door pin switches....pull them out and test them for continuity.
