They weren't quite sure. They said it looked like someone was messing around with the wires, maybe to find a power source for an aftermarket accessory. They said the wires weren't properly replaced. The only thing I could think of was there could have been an aftermarket DVD player there at some point.

 

hey perrona welcome to the forum!!!
what kind of truck do you have?
any aftermarket stuff installed on it?
edit: darn that 3rd page got me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

la perrona,

Did you happen to take your vehicle into the dealership to confirm if it was the BCM?

Thank you

hello uetranpa
I have a 2007 suburban 1500 its black with 5% tint all around its a nice truck and i dint end up going to the dealer to get it fixed its bad enough paying 4.60 a gallon of gas i just took of the fuse and i can still use the lights with the dimmer switch and when the doors open they still turn off i just cant turn them on individualy with their button

 

you know I don't use the interior lights that much, I turn them on manually if I'm looking for something at night, so when I saw the op fricking out about his problem and complaining about the free service we get on here I just couldn't believe it, but I'm glad to see that someone is thinking inside the fuse box and be ok with it
by the way looks like you have a nice truck but paying $4.60 a gal of gas!!! where are you located at? so that I know I will not move there.
saludos

 

Would the interior lite dimmer shut the lites off?

 

If the dash light dimmer is all the way on (at its brightest ), the dome & interior lights stay on.

 

Yes but they will turn off automatically after 10 minutes to save battery

 

Sounds like it's just the push switch for that particular light. The override only turns off the lights when a door is opened.

 

Check the relay QUOTE=Joe477;181995]Well, here's an update. I found that there are two fuses that control the interior lighting. One is for the dome lights that come on when you open the door. The other is for the "map" or courtsey lights that you push the button to turn on. I removed the fuse for the "map/courtsey" light fuse and now the lights dim out when I close the door and come on when I open the door as they should. The issue I have now is since I removed the map/courtsey light fuse they don't turn on when the button is pushed, of course. This leads me to believe it is not a door/dome light issue but an issue with the map/courtsey lights coming on and staying on. Any ideas? Will someone post something so I don't feel like I'm talking to my self here????[/QUOTE]
