    My interior light is not shutting off after delay. I hear it click, but light stays on. This is what I have trouble shooted so far. Pulled fuse-ok, inspected door switch, looks to be intact. I ran led strips under my headlights, they are tied to fuse box via fuse tap, also ran led strips in my engine bay straight to battery with inline fuse. I don't see them causing problems. Gotta be in the delay cut off switch, I don't know. All suggestions and opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks

    What about the dash switch to the left of the steering wheel? Guessing that you want it in the "Door" position. When you mention that you checked the door switch, I assume you mean the one that the door presses when closed, on the door jamb.

    Yes that switch, also had panel switch on door. Blew the fuse and I'm thinking there's a short. When it comes to electrical I'm amateur at best.
