My Courtesy Lights were stuck on all the time. They remained on after I turned the car off and got out of the car. They didn't turn off automatically after a few minutes. They remained on all the time while driving the car as well. It took me a while to discover it. I suspect they remained on for days after I parked the car but I never checked for it. I pulled the fuse when I realized they were on all the time. Then I checked the wiring diagrams and discovered that there's a switch for the Courtesy Lights. I expected to find it on the Light Switch Stalk but Nooooooo. It's located with the Dot Matrix Display controls. Who knew? So I re-installed the fuse and pressed the Courtesy Light Switch. Then the lights turned off. Apparently the Courtesy Light Switch has memory and it's NOT cancelled whenever the car is shut off or restarted. I suspect it probably resets if the Battery is disconnected but I haven't tried that.

Anyway, if your Courtesy Lights are stuck on all the time try the switch.
