May i ask, how you know your hood light comes on when your headlights are on? Has this happened repeatedly? Does it come on when your headlights are off? Interior lights could just be a fuse. Check your fuse box under your dash, there will be a diagram of which fuse goes to what. Check that fuse.

Somehow, your hood light's power supply has crossed with your headlight power supply. See if you can follow the wire back from the hood light and find a spot it is touching another wire, or going into the fuse box.
