Geez, I belong to the Rover forum but was curious about jeeps.
The interior light problem is most probably that an earth wire has dropped off a door switch and is shorting. undo all of teh door switches to check that the wires are still on. if not you will have to trace back further.

Re the indicator, most likely you have put an incorrect low wattage bulb in.usually should be 21Watt not 5 watt.
