Interior Lights
I just noticed today the door and rear cabin lights stay on after starting my 91. The timer seems to be working fine because after 10-15 minutes lights do go out. Since the door ajar light on dash isn't on I'd think that means the plungers on the doors are not the issue. Any thoughts?

I'm confused.... are you saying that after the car is started and the doors are closed, the interior lights stay on for 10-15 minutes? Your interior lights should go off after start and immediately after doors/hatches are closed. Also, your interior lights will not come on in any event if the ambient light is too bright; that means that your light sensor is working.
BTW....These little relays are pretty faulty so don't be surprised if you swap one and everything works well.

I just went back out to car a few minutes ago and now it seems to be working correctly again. Not sure what has changed because I did play around with it for about an hour after first noticing lights stayed on after starting. So at this point all i can do is shrug my shoulders. Only thought i have is maybe one of the switches was dirty, but I'd think that would cause an issue with lights not coming on, not staying on.
