Well there is a fuse but it cuts out all interior lighting. Sounds like the switch contacts might be worn. Theres a little push style switch where the door closes. check that. if not. pop the lense off the light and just pull the bulb out it its bothering you.

Wait. I didnt get that before.. Is it all the door interior lights?
If so then it the switch garanteed. theres not to many factors involved with that circuit
Im not sure if its stuck. remember the max is an old car. Ive seen some crazy old circuitry in this car. It might be the physical contacts inside the switch are just bent/worn out
Pull it off and check it out,.

rusted door open switches.
i heard of this and replaced the rubber covering with new ones. my old ones were worn and had holes in them. basically pull the switch and spray it with some anti rust spray, and see of that helps, if not then get one working switch and test all 4 doors by replacing the switch...

Making right hand turn

Flucttuates the blinking to my exhaust or my bass of my music

I kinda had a similar problem. My problem was the screw was loose where the door switches are, so I took a screwdriver and tightened them. The switches were loose giving off the signal that the door was open.
The bulbs on the door panels are also easily accessible.
