2001 experdition EB

When any of the doors or hatch is open the inside and running board lights stay on and will run the battery down. I thought they should time out. I have changed the GEN module and the lamp and battery saver relays, and they still stay on. Do you know if they should time out and what controls them? Yes i can pull the fuses or the relays to turn them off.

How long are you waiting? I believe the battery saver relay times out after 40-minutes, at which point the lights should turn off.
