Default My inside keeps coming on...

My inside light keeps coming on signalling that the door is open, but the door isn't open, and then if I pound by elbow against driver's side door the light goes off. It also makes that annoying "door open" noise.

I had the shocks and struts replaced (they needed to be anyways) but that still didn't fix the problem.

And the strange thing is, the light comes sometimes when I hit a big bump and sometimes when I don't. And I can hit a big bum and it won't come on.

Crazy.

Any thoughts on what it could be and how to fix it?

If you search the old forum there should be an easy fix posted there.
