I noticed last night that my interior and cargo bed lights would come on automatically and then go off. They would stay on for about 20 seconds and then go off for 30 seconds to 8 minutes then start over again. This continued all night and the battery was dead this morning. I do not know just how long this has been happening.

Have it scanned by a pro it may be the gem module going bad. There is a relay for interior lights in junction box

Thanks. I will have it checked. I pulled the relay and put it back in. I also heard the battery saver relay clicking when the battery was dead. I put the charger on and it charged good and started. I ran the truck for approx. 30 minutes, shut it off and have not seen the lights come back on.
