Default Need help finding Dome light Timer Part

My dome light all of a sudden is staying on instead of going out in a few mintues and when I put the key in the ign switch . I found the little orange timer module behind the glove box but I cant seem to find a parts supplier that even lists it .

Does anyone know where to find this part ?

Thanks

Heck , I'm not worried about fixing it if it is out of production .

What would I need to do to make my dome light come on when I open the doors ? The dome light comes on when I twist the headlight switch **** but not when I open the doors .

Hi Keith,
Easy fix. Just jumper the white wires in the connector you've unplugged from the orange timer module. The interior lights will work the same as any other car then.
Best,
Greg

I bought a repro through Corvette Central a few years ago. They still list in...part #593149, courtesy lamp time delay relay control.

When I bought it, it was $40...now it lists for $62 if you're still interested.

Haha... heck no ... not at that kind of ridiculous price ...... no big deal , but thanks for the info !

I tied my two white wires together and it works like a normal car would .... thats all I need . My Vette is Very Modified so putting it back to original is of no concern .
