Door pin switch. Use your domelight override in the meantime.

:word:

It's like a $9 part at NAPA, and a 2-minute install... Now, as to which side is bad... :dunno:

Its doing it with or with out the dome over ride on or off. I assume its the head light module...

Have you left the override on for long enough? Seems like it takes it about a minute before it comes to action. (the time it takes for the lights to shut off automatically after the door is closed with no key on)

Maybe it isn't a door pin. Maybe it's your headlight/dimmer switch.

Mine started doing that too, but only in the winter months when it's cold out.

As far as the override, you have to trick it. Either turn on the override when the lights are off, or turn it on and turn the key to the run position so the lights go off. Then they should stay off. Many times I would wake up and my damn lights had been on all night till I figured out how to keep them off! I just lived with it, and now that it's warmer outside they work fine.

I'm not worried about fixing such a small problem just yet. If it burns to the ground I'll just let gap insurance cover it and get me out of the damn payments and go buy a new truck.
