Vp problem HELP !!!!!interior light problems

[Ygoford]

my mates just brought a vp for 2500 that has done 160,000 ks and is imaculate i told him its underpriced but thats not the issue the issue is that his interior light didnt work so i replaced the light globe and the fuse and it does but instead of turning off it just dims :S help !

yeh mate, im guessing that it might be a calais?? thats what they are programmed to do, you can change the dim, for longer or shorter, im not sure how but i know i read it somewhere maybe on this or in a gregorys.

nope exectuive and i didnt look for the change thing but when its suppose to go off it doesnt

Check the switches for when the doors shut, if one of those is stuffed it will stay grounded and not disconnect, Therefore the light will stay on.

Hope this helps,

I know this might sound stupid, but check that the switch on the dash for the interior light is not pressed, happened to me... Dont know if the VP has one but im assuming it does.

 

[HATER VP]

Yeah it has one.
Hold the switch in on each door to see if it turns off after the delay.
If it dosent you will have to look closer into each switch because thats probley what the problem is. Also check each side of where the switch sits.
It seems it could be just about shitting off if it dims.
