2000 Ford Windstar Interior Lights Question

[Astaruse]

I've got a 2000 Ford Windstar, and recently the interior lights near the floor in the passenger area have begun either staying off or blinking in a seemingly random pattern when the doors are open. I am assuming it's something like a dead bulb, or a problem with the electrical system. Anyone else experienced this, or have any ideas? I can't really afford a trip to the repair shop right now.

Thanks in advance,
Astaruse

I would check the bulbs to see if there snug. may be loose causing the problem..Not sure on this..

I think you jinks me!! my 2001 did the same thing the other day.. I had one bad bulb and replaced it now it does not blink any more.. Im glad you mentioned this because i thought i had electrical issues from my power door lock fix. When it blinks or stopes blinking find the bulbs that are not working and replace... I had one on the passenger floor bad..

Althougth I agree that people should read a bit before asking questions I think that the problem described is different from the standard Door ajar light/interior lights staying on problem that has been covered a multitute of times.

This new scenario is with the lights turning on and off when the door is open which is not the same as the door ajar and interior lights being steadily on when the doors are closed.
