Disconnect your battery and it will reset your interior light relay. I had the same problem with my Jeep Liberty

SOURCE: 2000 JGC interior dome lights stay on.

Seems like an anti theft module problem. You should have it scanned and get a code. some stores do it for free.Such as auto Zone.

SOURCE: Removing doors from Jeep Wrangler - Dome Light Stays On

I have a 97, and my fuse for that is behind the glovebox. Open the box, slide the end of the strap to disconnect it, then remove the box. The fuse is marked. Something like "Dome lt. elim." I think it's located one up from the bottom right. This can actually be done without removing the glove box. For a more permanent fix, quadratec.com has a switch that plugs into the fuse location and mounts under the dash, so you can just flip the switch. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: interior lights stay on after car shuts off

there is a timer to turn the dome lights off,it could be faulty or each of the doors have a little black button in the door frame,you can pull the center of the push button out about a 1/16th of an inch,and close the door slowly to reset them.

SOURCE: Dome light and other interior lights will not come

Sounds like the door switch might be bad. Does it happen for both doors or just the one door?

2005 Dodge Durango interior dome lights will not shut off

One of the switches on the doors or tailgate are broken. Look at the switches (located on the door or the door pillars) and see if one of them has been broken or stuck. This switch turns lights off when depressed.

The interior lights and running board lights stay

Check your DOME light switch. There are 3 positions. Completely OFF even with doors open, ON with doors shut so you can read while parked, NORMAL for the lights to come on only when the doors are open.

Your headlight switch will also turn everything ON inside when it is turned completely to one side. Just twist this switch a little towards center if this is on.
