Start with the fuses, then checkout the connections.

i tried my fuses and they all look good. my dome light is stupid though. if i go to pry off the lens, the f-in light comes on! so i put the lens back on and it works for a day or too and then stops. but now it dont work even if i pry the lens off. the bulb looks fine too. so idk. and by connections, are you talking about where the bulbs plug in or the wires somewhere?

my parking lights are fine but my dome light doesn't come on unless I manually switch it on. Not when i open the door or anything. Is this normal?

Check the switch in the door jam, if it's operating correctly. Maybe it's stuck closed.

hmmm, the only thing ive ever experienced is that the ashtray light exploded. literally into pieces not sure what happened there, fuse or something didnt work and let too many amps through.

anyways, try checking your wiring, maybe theres a chuck of insulator peeled off somewhere and its grounding your lights out.
