In my experience, Maytag is correct about the latch switch being problematic (this one you can't hear, since it activates at the same time the latch actuates). I made a post somewhere about repairing this switch with some hot glue and heat shrink (still holding up fine).



In regards to the light not turning on: I feel as though I have heard this is often correlated with an immobilizer problem, but that is generally correlated with water exposure.
Honestly, the more I think about it, the more I think the dome light thing is part of the same problem.
Your car doesn't know the door is opening.... so no window drop, no dome light.
Check the wiring where it goes between the door and the body.
