I recently bought this conversion van and the courtesy lights do not work. It is a Mark III conversion of a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500. When opening or closing the doors with a visible push switch, the courtesy lights turn on with a click, then after about half a second turn off with a click as well. The clicks are decently loud and I tracked the noise to the circuit board that is right behind the drivers seat. I don't see any blown fuses in there and I can't find a wiring diagram online. Any ideas for a solution or a wiring diagram? Thanks.

 

One of the problems with conversion vans is, each one is pretty much unique. There aren't any wiring diagrams for them, as so far as I have seen, no two are wired alike. We had a lot of issues with this when I was at the chevy dealer... It got to the point, that ANY electrical work on a conversion van was time and materials. That got expensive REAL fast.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^that don't sound too good.....

 

Sure adds interest to life..... Makes workin' on 'em fun too......

 

I have the same thing happening, but mine comes back on after 5-7sec. And they only stay on for 12sec after the door's closed. Weird but if they don't come back on like mine, try holding in the reset on the Autonet controller where you hear the clicking.
