I think my door courtesy lights on the dashboard are acting funky. You know the ones that tell you if the a door or your trunk is open? When I have the car on, they work like a charm... but as soon as i turn off the car, the door lights don't work anymore.
I probably didn't need a video to show what I'm talking about... but here is one anyway.

the video starts off, with the car on & the door closed. I open the door (dash light comes on) and then I turn the car off with he door open (dash light turns off).
So yeah, is that normal? do you guys think that this is what could be draining my battery? I know it doesn't make sense for the battery to drain when those lights go off... but it's the only thing that i can think of that is malfunctioning.
I had a similar problem before where my a/c fan stayed on no matter what, but i temporarily solved the problem by disconnecting the fan. now i'm having something else drain the batter all of a sudden (weeks later). Or could it just be that my battery is going out, or possibly even my alternator?
