Have you checked the door switches one at a time?

Leave the switch on for the dome light setting so the dome light stays on when doors are open. One at a time open a door and push the door pin switch in/out and watch the dome light.

Sorry been super busy,

Ok the problem could be in the timer module itself or the multiplex control unit. It's hard to diagnose over the internet. If the switches are good then you have to check the control units in the circuit.
