Well we have had rain for like 1 or 2 days straight and my car sits outside. Well Things are now working that have never worked before. The curtesy lights never worked but now when the pasenge opens their door they come on till they close it. They doen't work with the drivers side. When I open the drivers door the dinging noise now comes on but the light on the dash doesn't light up saying the door is open. I went to the grocery store and locked the doors and the security light came on. It then went off when I opened the door. I think there is a short somewhere if someone could tell me what wires I need to check out to get all these things to work that would be great. Heres the list again:

Curtesy Lights
Dinging noise when door opened
Security system

Thanks alot,

Thats what I think the problem might be I took them out sprayed electrical cleaner on them let them sit in wd-40 all night then sprayed electrical cleaner on them again and let them sit all night to get nice and dry before I put them back on. I also sprayed all the connections in the door with the electrical cleaner. I'm putting the car back together sometime today so I'll see how it turns out.

My brother has an eclipse to so if it still doesn't work I might switch out his switches and see if that fixes the problem.
