I have a 2018 Ford Explorer, my interior dome light stays on when door is open. I want it to remain off at all times. How do I fix it?
There's a button on the headlight nob switch that allows it on and off while in the car. I don't want light to be on when i park, open the door to gather things at night. I don't want people to have a chance of looking inside. How can i fix the problem?
Should be a setting on the switch. If not, remove the bulb.
Read the manual.
Oddly, there does not seem to be that feature. See page 88 of your owner's manual (source). You can turn it on manually but you do not seem to be able to disable it. You may have to cover the dome light or remove the bulb (the manual says it is a W5W lamp but does not have instructions for removing it.) All that is kinda bogus.
Take the bulb out
Yank the bulb out.
Take the bulb out of the light fixture
Remove the bulb.
There may be a sliding switch on the light, that controls when the light is on.
Read your owner's manual. In my car, if i want it like you're asking, my dome light has a switch to select that- always on, on when door is open or always off.
Disconnect the connector at the bulb.
- What's the difference between the map light and dome light? I have a 2003 Ford Taurus SES sedan. I want to put LED interior lights. I was looking it up and I has dome and map lights? So I looked up the difference and the only thing that kept showing was the overhead dome housing?
- Headlights, instrument cluster lights, tail lights, and dome light all stopped working at once? 1995 Mustang GT convertible, fuses are good, switch is good. I'm about to do a voltage drop test on it tomorrow but I wanted to see if you Ford guys knew something that I'm overlooking.
- Interior lights won't come on when the door is open on my 2003 Ford Windstar? I just bought a 2003 Ford Windstar, and the interior lights don't turn on when a door is opened. If we turn the switch all the way up, all the lights come on, but don't ever turn off. It's not associated with a door being open. Anyone aware of how to fix this?
- Ford focus h/b 1.0T 2018 trend or IBIZA 2018 FR? I was wondering if I should get the ford focus hatchback 2018 1.0 turbo trend(category) or Seat IBIZA FR (category) 2018. Couldn't find any answers, ford has better motor but not much better but the FR has better options.
