Ctm??

 

Central timer module.

 

Is that the relay kinda thing that is in the dash fuse panel that gets super hot? I wonder if that's whats causing my battery to die

 

No, it's behind the knee panel (under the steering wheel). There is a metal support on the right side, it's mounted to it (on the dude test you cannot see, facing the ashtray). Not sure what's getting hot at your fuse panel. Take a pic of it send post it.

 

Round timer module is what's getting hot. Round top left. The thing your talking about may be what's not plugged in on mine (8 pin plug hanging under my dash)

 

That's probably not it then. IIRC it is an 16 pin but I would have to check for sure (maybe tomorrow). And, I'll have to take a look at the round thing.

 

96 doesn't have the CTM, that showed up on the 98 model year trucks.

 

Well shoot. I was hoping that would have been my fix

*UPDATE*
So I started pulling stuff today, there was no bulb in the ignition ring, clicky map lights do not have any kind of bulbs in them, dome light has a led bulb in it, got to lookiby at the bulb there is a slight possibility that the bulb was in there reversed (led only flows current one way) so maybe flipping it may cause it to come back on, but i kinda dropped it so I'll have to play around with it once I get a battery

 

Not sure if you've gotten your issue fixed or not, grab your door sensors, pull them straight out, unplug them and plug them back in, you could always check continuity on them or make a jumper

If your truck was purchased used the previous owner could have removed the buzzer, or it could be unplugged

 

I still don't have this fixed on mine, Iv got new door switches, new dome bulb and actually replaced the dome light wth one from the junkyard and still don't have a dome light. I have my key lights, my buzzer now, and all my other lights including radio but no dome.
