I'm building my SC van to live in full time, and plan on having the sliding door and possibly tailgate open for long periods of time.. is there anyway to permanently disable the door open light on the dash so it doesn't cause uhh battery issues over time

Couldn't see a plunger thing on the sliding door, just the pins for the soft close mechanism

Cheers

The pin switch is at the rear of the door-frame - near the second row passenger seat, seat-belt. When the switch circuit is connected, the lights come on. So you need to either disconnect one wire from the pin switch - or add a switch in series somewhere, so you can disable it when you need to.

Ok rear of door frame, that'll be why I didn't see it. I think I'll just pull a wire, seems like the easiest way thanks
