Default Interior Light Timer

Does anyone know how to disable the timer for the interior light in the cab?

Here is a great, free source for a wiring diagram for your specific truck. It should be easy to find what you have jump around to keep your light running.

Go to www.bbbind.com .

Select TSB Database, then Wiring Diagrams. Enter your truck info. From there you can choose what Category you need. It's all there, including wire colors to help you trace problems.

It's a relay that's controlled by electronics/logic, it's downstream from the battery saver relay, and it's a integral part of the SJB can't be readily removed.

What's going on, do you want to override it and have the light stay on indefinitely or is the light stuck on and God forbid, it's not one of the switches in the door causing this?

No i just want it to stay on unless I manually turn it off but still come on when I open the doors or hit the unlock button. It's kinda annoying when I goes off and I'm working on the cab or something. I think I may just run an additional power wire to it so I can override it. Probably better than messing with the other stuff
