The interior courtesy lights operate erratically or sometimes not at all
when activated by opening the driver's door. The other 3 doors work fine.
Sometimes they flicker, don't come on at all, come on eventually, and other
times work properly. They had quit working at all until a tech. worked on
the system.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated
Thank You

Why are you so sure?
IIRC there are two switches on the drivers door.
Change the fuses.
Change the bulbs.
Clean up your ground terminals.
And tell us more history. What did the tech do?

I agree. Try manipulating the driver door switch by hand. Twist the
plunger and press it in. If the light come on for a brief period or
stay on after that, then it's the door switch.
