Driver's Interior Lights Staying On S70 1998

Hi All,
I have an intermittent problem with the front overhead cabin lights. On occasions they do not turn off after locking and leaving the car. Switch is set to the 'door' position. The rear seat lights go off. Any ideas?

Check and see if pushing on your driver's side door will turn off the internal light (since you're probably in and out of this the most), unless it tends to happen after carrying passengers, then check those. You can adjust any of the doors "tightness" by unscrewing and moving the latch assembly slightly.

Thnx for advice on door adjustment but the problem appears to be electrical as opposed to the door switches. Yesterday just one of the two front lights remained on then the other came back on shortly after even with the door still closed. I suppose I'll need to take it to a dealer for computer analysis.
