It's with the head light switch, turn it one way and they stay on longer, the other shorter..
It turns on the interior lights.
The dimmer switch when turned just past high, turns on the interior lights. There are switches in the door opening that turns the lights off when the door is closed. Either one of these can cause the lights to stay on if they fail.
I believe if you turn your gauge panel dimmer switch all the way it turns on the interior lights when all the doors are closed
You probably turned them on by accident. They are controlled with the same pull switch that turns on the headlights. By twisting the switch to the far left it will click and the dome lights will turn on, by twisting it to the right it will turn off the interior lights and will then dim the dashboard lights.
We have both a 2000 Safari and Astro and the lights turns off the same in both vans. To the left of the lights knob there is a button you can press to turn the dome lights on and off. If you press it 4 times it will turn your running lights off. The headlights automatically turn on in our vans and they are turned off the same way.
i have the same problem my dash light turns on when i turn on the interior lights but when i turn on only ........the dash light they wont turn on but they work when the interior lights are on ........so they do work .,...is there a separate fuse ?
Closing the door turns off interior lights on a 1997 Chevy S10 because there is a switch in the door jamb that closes when the door shuts. When the door opens, the switch opens.
Turn your interior light dimmer until it turns on the cabin lights.
Weak battery or the theft alarm is activated. Try unlocking doors(all) with the key.
Have you tried turning the knob that turns your head lamps on? Sometimes that will turn your interior lights back on. Also, you might check the fuse box that is located under the dash on the drivers side, there may be a fuse blown.
Just happened to me. We thought it was the fuel pump; turns out it was a bad ignition switch. Turn on interior lights, try to start van, when you release the key and engine quits and interior lights go out at the same time, that's what it is.
the sensor is in the post behind the drivers door at the bottom , this sensor turns your headlights on in daylight mode when car is started but it is not the sensor that turns them on brighter ( or the dash lights ) automatically when dark
