Is the light off at the headlight switch? Wiring correctly in place at the light itself?

Yeah I didn't take any wires apart maybe a ground.its messing with my alarm. If I leave the bulb in an I close my doors the alarm will activate but the dome light stays on. But if I take the dome light out an close my doors the alarm won't engage. So there's something with the circuit, I think there's a loose ground somewhere. Right now the light is hanging, I know its something minor.
