any one else know that you can turn off the interior lights

[Mr. iNCREDIBLE]

so they don't come on when the door opens...


I discovered by accident tonight that if you turn the dash light control all the way down it clicks, and when you open your doors your lights don't come on.

any one else know about this???/

[Duke]

NO! But I'm going to try

[BUTWEET]

Yup! I knew that. I'm sure you'll be teaching some people, new and old, of this trick.

That was one of the features that I liked about my Magnum and it has been in that mode from day one.

Yep! Isn't that a standard feature on most cars?

[ZMagnum]

Yep. My Durango does the same.

BTW, I use this feature quite a bit to turn off my LED interior lights so the starting process does not surge them and burn them out.

[gameover]

yup i knew about it. i believe this is a feature in most cars.

[Dodger]

yep, nice when your loading your car and you don't want extra passengers! Minnesota State Bird the mosquitoes - actually second to the Loon.

most have a switch or something, I know that my 4 past chevy's did not have this feature, most American cars don't..

[crazy_luck]

Every car I've ever had, even my '68 Chevelle, has done this. But, on the newer cars, if you leave you door open for a length of time, the dome light turns off automatically (as long as you don't do anything like turn the key on or something that would make the computer think you are active in the car) - I see this happen when I vaccuum/detail the car.

Yeppers..Helps alot at night when showing off neons in the interior..Just click the interior lights off.

[Surf]

Yep, and for me this is an important feature.

[Peybella]

Yep - Found out at a show when my battery ran down and the guys in the club told me how to keep that from happening. I'm a genius.?.?.?

[Super T]

Now what'd be REALLY cool is if that same detent position on the switch turned off the dash lights even if you had the headlights on.

[Kuldip]

with the dim switch all the way down, i also found that when you set the alarm , the delay front headlights don't come on.
