Question Dome light time delay

I'd like to reduce or eliminate the time delay which keeps the interior dome light on for approximately 20 seconds after the last door is closed on my 2003 F350. (Hey, we all have our hang ups) Anyone have a clue how to do this?

Dome light time delay

Talk to someone whose hobby is electronic circuit design - you'd have to change a tiny resistor/capacitor inside the dome light control module, and it's probably a surface-mount component, which means it's about the size & shape of a small grain of rice.

Smile Dome light time delay

Thanks for the tip. I'm sure this isn't something I want to tackle myself. I've been bitten by Murphy's Law too many times.
