1985 Interior Lighting
I was reading through some archived threads, and I happened to read that a fellow forum member's 1985 interior lights slowly dimmed as they turned off after about 15 seconds.
Mine do not dim, after about 10 to 15 seconds they just shut off...
I know it's probably nitpicking, but if they are supposed to slowly dim, I'd like to fix it so that they do. Anyone have any idea what I might look for?

The courtesy delay timer is what causes the lights to time out after you shut the door. Mine was defective when I bought my Vette so I am not sure if it is supposed to dim slowly or not. I jumpered the white wires so my courtesy lights would work. No delay. Just on and off. I understand that the part has been discontinued.
