Suggestions Welcome. All entry lights are remaining on , dome, door, front floor and key door lamps.Dash first showed tail lamp inoperative,traced that to a bad bulb in left rear tail lamp. Dash cleared OK, next day dead battery, I don't use this car as a daily driver so I do have it on a float charger, now dash showed door open ??? Checked all my door jam switches, replaced drivers side front and rear, dash cleared, door open is back today. Thanks

That's a weird one... I haven't seen many issues with this one. I'm going to still guess that it's a door switch? Make sure the screws are all tight that hold them in place... I think the switch grounds through that point.

If you haven't checked out the service manual, it's available at www.infinitiservicemanual.com

This happened to me last year. I tried all of the door switches with no luck. Pulled the fuse and left it as is until inspection time some months later. Put the fuse back in and the issue had went away. Unsure of what caused it or of what actually fixed it. Start with all door switches and go from there.
