Courtesy Lamp Control
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The body controller has direct control over the majority of the vehicle's courtesy lamps. The body computer will illuminate the courtesy lamps under any of the following conditions:
- Any door is ajar.
- The courtesy lamp switch on the instrument panel is closed.
- A Remote Keyless entry unlock message is received. If the interior lamps are left on after the ignition is turned off, the BCM will turn them off after 15 minutes or until either the dome lamp switch or door ajar switch changes state.
