Thank you so much! My battery has gone completely flat several times because of the lights during some trips where I sleep inside and open/close the doors often. I couldn't find a black button like some other videos show. This door lock thing is such a good trick. THANK YOU

Try this everyone, open rear door so lights come on. Then open drivers door and close it, but not tight, leave it ajar. Your lights all of them will time out.. note this will not work on passenger door must use drivers door.

@@Gonewithjon Unfortunately, even though I did make sure to watch the part about how to use the door handle to reset the part so I could close the door, it didn't work and my latch won't open now. It's my fault though, because I thought that this advice would work for my Ford Econoline 150 van even though your van is a Ford Transit van, and it turns out that the wiring and latches are not the same. Oh well, thanks anyway. Time to go find me another video about Ford Econoline latches, but I haven't been able to find any. I still like your video by the way. Have a good one.

WARNING: I did this and had a terrible time getting the latch back in its proper position. Apparently the emergency exit latch on the passenger version does NOT do this for you when you pull it. In the end, a loop of zip tie and a screwdriver helped me restore it, but I won’t be doing that again.

Or; go to the driver seat. Hold down the - and + buttons on the light switch panel while turning the key to "on" (not starting, just turning on the radio and windows etc.) I'd heard of this before but couldn't get it to work. I actually was just fiddling with stuff when I was on the phone and did this the right way. Now my lights turn off after about 10 seconds. No messing around with locks or cutting anything. PS It might be turning the power off while holding the buttons down. Not exactly sure. But happy my lights don't stay on for 30 minutes!

Wish i had known about this before purchase because i am infirm it is a complete deal breaker. I cannot believe that Ford would be so stupid in their design. VERY DISAPPOINTED!
