Those extra connectors look to be part of an old alarm system or something,
which actually could be affecting the dome light not working depending on
how it was wired up. It was probably wired to allow the lights to come on
when the alarm was un-armed, and shut off when the alarm was armed. Chances
are you could trace them back to where they are spliced in and it may lead
to the interior lighting wiring.

Subject: DML: Switches and Wiring
I've been exploring my problem with my interior lights not coming on
when I open the doors. I went to swap the door switches and learned
something - the switches Napa sells don't fit right, they won't tighten
down. That leads to a question - how does one recover one of the 2
wires going to said switch when it pops off the switch when you're
pulling it out, getting lost in the cavity behind the hole? DOH!
Then I have these mysterious connectors dangling near my fuse panel,
anyone know what they are?
