Ours came on too...took it to a local shop, they referred us to the dealer. The light came on for a fuel temp sensor that they thought was bad. $1300 later they had swapped the sensor (which they said the new one was bad too so they needed to change it again). They changed the alternator and battery because both died to whatever problem this is. Long story short, get it into the dealer or a garage quickly before it up and dies on you for good.

How do you make dome light come on when door opens on 2005 Kia sorento?

I have an '03 Kia Sorento. When my (center) dome light over the middle seat quit working, it was a diode in the system; replaced under warranty, now out again!! It now works when the key is on, and you turn it on from the dash dimmer switch, but not when you open the door; only the far back one comes on. The front map lights DO NOT come on with the door open.
