Flickering Interior Dome lights

[Oddball]

Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone has had this issue?

My interior Dome lights have started flickering intermittently while I was driving. I thought perhaps a loose connection and the bumps with flicking it on and off, but it does it in park as well.

See the Attached video for what I mean.

TIA

Does the rear do the same or just the front lights?

Preliminary - checks

Do they operate fine - when the door is opened and also manual control?
Does it do the same for all rocker switch positions or only the center position?
Does the dimming feature work normally for both door open and closed and starting?

Try cycling the rocker switch and also the individual lights (switch lights x3) each light is also a switch.

I didn't notice. I will check next opportunity

Check for mice.

Depending on the preliminary tests - I suspect a door ajar switch (dirty) contact's, circuit disruption long enough to trigger the lights but not long enough to trigger the door ajar message.
Might be able to see it - while live data monitoring the door ajar switches to see if the status briefly flickers or push pull on each door to see if it either stops or starts the flickering and or fist bump around the latch (as a way to possibly isolate the problem latch)

To me it's (switch related) as the light is being commanded on then off - using the information provided thus far and the video

I have driven the truck a few more times since this happened and have not been able to replicate. Must have been like you said, and some contact wasn't quite making on the door. If it happens again I will update.

Thanks for the help
