DOME LIGHT – STAYS ON WHEN ENGINE IS OFF. GOES OFF WHEN ENGINE IS ON. 2013 Hyundai Elantra Limited  
Is there something that we can do to turn it off?

Please turn off the ALL CAPS…

Check your owners manual. It will tell you how the dome lights are supposed to work and where the switches are.

My 2010 Kia Forte (first cousin to the Elantra) has a 3 position switch on the light. On. On when door is open. Off. I leave mine in the off position.
