Hello there.
I have a 2003 buick rendezvous CXL and it's been having some lighting issues lately.
2 issues that arose:

1. The internal lights will not go off. The two lights on the rear-view mirror, the lights underneath the driver and passenger feet space, and the two lights by the coat-hangers in the rear seats stay on whether I've put the internal light control settings to Off/Door/On. The only way it will go off is if the ignition is off, and I lock the doors, and then wait for a while, OR I pull out the fuse. I've checked the fuse just in case and it was completely fine, and even when replaced with a spare fuse of the same amp, the problem does not go away. My guess is that the wiring of the controllers are messed up? Any ideas?

2. The dashboard shows a message that says "Park Lamp Out". I've located and checked the bulbs on both front park lamps and they were fine. I am not sure as to exactly what the rear park lamps are. There are 6 lamps on the back of the vehicle, all of them covered by a red lighting cover. 2 of them are on the car body (1 on each side), and 4 of them are on the trunk door (2 on each side). Any instruction as to which ones are the rear park lamp and how to access the bulbs?

Thank you!
 
Did not check fsm for lights .... but if it is not a connection it is the bcm.......

Unless it id wiring then the car probably thinks it has a door open .....that coupled with the park lamp message ......bcm ...

Pull the rubber skin from where the wires pass through to the hatch door and check them.
