make sure where youpull your lights on, that it is not turned all the way to turn the dome lights on.

Exactly, the **** thats used to turn your lights on (by pulling out) if you turn it all the way to the left (counterclockwise) it should click and the dome light will turn on. Turn it clockwise to turn the light off and to dim the gauge lights.

your computer should have reconized it and shut the power down to the light after something like 3 minutes. Sounds like you got issues[]

If you determine it not to be a simple problem with your headlight **** being turned then check the door trigger pin and make sure its not broken or something otherwise wrong with it and see if pressing it in with your finger makes the light turn off
