Answer
it's more likely "reading" an open circuit.
Check the dome light switch for a delay.
If it has one, then turn it off, or reset
the feature setting in the alarm to allow
for a 1 min arming routine so the dome light
goes out PRIOR to arming the alarm.

Try waiting until the dome goes out, then
arm it to see if you still have this issue.
It's called current sensing.
