Default All dome lights stay on while driving.

Eventually they time out. Why is this happening? I am thinking the fact that my drivers door actuator will unlock but won't lock using the fob? Also when I use the inside rocker switch the drivers lock doesn't lock. I have to manually lock with key and then I get a single horn warning that I'm guessing something isn't secure?

Single toot after locking should indicate an open door. Rear cargo door is possible culprit take a look again at all of the doors.

I will rescan once again. I’m sure there’s a sticky switch somewhere! Ugh

This happens to me when my wife drives my Disco and doesn’t forcefully shut the rear cargo door.

Agree, rear barn door latches somewhat without being totally closed. It takes a hefty swing to get it to latch properly. If you are getting a single beep, one of the five doors or hood is not closed properly...or you have a bad switch on one.

Could also be hood alarm switch. Give it a chk.

The single beep means you probably just have a door open signal that you will want to trace down and solve -- if you didn't have the beep I'd say you might have corrosion in your interior (under drivers side) fusebox.

Yes, I thought I was on to something while inspecting the hood alarm switch I actually got the truck to lock properly using the fob, no honk. The hood switch wasn't quite tall enough to meet up with the bonnet and switch to 'closed' as there was a part missing (the rubber boot). So I jumped the connector and "thought" I had the issue isolated on that switch ( I even did a happy dance). It worked five time and eventually I was back to where I started with it giving me the honk again. I gave it my middle finger and went in to have dinner. That's my day today.
