Battery Run Down Protection/Inadvertent Power

To provide battery run down protection the Body Control Module (BCM) used in this vehicle controls the lighting system through circuits that enable the interior lamps. The BCM opens these enabling circuits 10 minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF with no lamp switch activity. If the ignition switch is turned to any position other than OFF, or if a lamp switch is activated, during this 10 minute period the timer will reset for another 10 minutes.
