Has anyone else experienced problems with the interior lamp staying on after the side curtain airbag recall was performed?
The interior lights on my XLT ecoboost are staying on with the switch in the middle position ever since the recall was done. It’s as if the switch is stuck in the left position, or one of the doors is ajar, but neither is the case. The only way to turn the lights off is setting the switch to the right position, but then the courtesy lights are alway off, even when the doors are opened.
The service techs at the dealership have been working on it for about a week with little progress. They have been in touch with the engineers (in Detroit?) who have dialed in remotely to pin point the problem.
So far they have replaced a “bad module” that required both key fobs to reprogram it for some reason. That did not solve the problem. I sent them the posts from this forum about pinched wires under the door sill which they’ve apparently checked also.
The engineering response has been slow so I believe the techs are going to try replacing a plug in the lamp assembly on their own as a next step.
The dealership has gone above and beyond in providing me with a loaner and keeping me well informed. No complaints there at all, but just hoping someone else on this forum (hopefully a Ford master service tech) has experienced the same problem and can shed some light on what was done to fix it.
I’m sure the problem will get resolved eventually but I miss my Maverick!
Thanks!
