It is not the "door ajar" symptom. I did search several ways for this issue...
My dome light stays on too long. The "door ajar" light is not on. I had it fixed once before. The dealer said it was a bad relay/module... something like that.
Normally when I unlock the doors with the remote, the light turns on. It stays on until I start the truck. At that moment the dome light should turn off.
But it stays on for about 20 seconds. It is very annoying when I am trying to back out of a parking space at night and when I look over my shoulder all I can see is dome light in my face... Hehehehe (minor issue compared to the fuel pump, head gasket, intake manifold gasket and 12 lifters I just had replaced for about $2100)
I would greatly appreciate if anyone can tell me where this module is that controls how long the light stays on. I like to do repairs myself when possible. Or point me in the direction of a repair manual that might tell me this information.
Thanks in advance,
Mikeeee
