Interior light problem

Does anyone know what would cause the interior lights to come on at random times? No one is in the vehicle,doors are locked and the interior lights come on at random.

If nobody is in the car and the doors are already locked pushing the lock button on the key will cause the interior lights to come on for a minute or so. Then they fade out again.

Something in your pocket pushing the button? Or do you let the kids (if you have any) play with the key?

Hmmm... That is weird. Might be a short in the key button. Could be something else though like a bad door switch. If you're in warranty take it in. If not you may have to anyway to find the problem.
