Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

Does your dome light stay on when in the center "door" position and the doors are closed?

Yes, there is a black clip on the trunk latch that you can disconnect. However, if the problem is caused by that wire being grounded, you will either need to fix the ground or cut the wire at the back of your gauge cluster.

Unless australian clusters are very different than JDM, EDM, and USDM clusters, most likely you have either a bad door pin switch or grounded door trigger wire.
