2006 chevy trailblazer dome light will not shut off

My dome lights will not shut off I believe there is a timer to make them shut off but I'm not sure. Looked for fuse and could not locate fuse for the dome light. I never found a fuse box under the passenger rear seat, and the fuse panel in the engine compartment does not have a fuse label for dome lights. Please help

    Do I have to take out the rear passenger seat to get to the fuse box?

There is no fuse marked for dome light's in the rear fuse box. The BCM - body control module controls the dome / courtesy light's .
The body control module (BCM) monitors the courtesy lamp switch signal circuit in order to determine when the courtesy/dome lamps should be illuminated. When the BCM senses that the courtesy lamp switch signal circuit is grounded when the switch is activated, the BCM will directly illuminate the courtesy/dome lamps.
DTC B3801 Passenger Compartment Lamp Request Circuit

You should possibly think about taking your vehicle to a qualified repair shop !
Install a scan tool.
Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
With a scan tool, observe the courtesy lamp switch parameter in the body control module (BCM) data list.
Does the scan tool display INACTIVE?
YES - Go to Step 3
NO - Go to Step 4
3
Activate the courtesy lamp switch.
With the scan tool, observe the courtesy lamp switch data parameter.
Does the courtesy lamp switch data parameter change state?

• Test the courtesy lamp switch for sticking in the ON position.
• Perform a visual inspection for loose or poor connections at all related components. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems.

SOURCE: 2006 Trailblazer Headlight Replacement

There are not two rods, there are two clips one under fender weild and one right above the light on top of the cover. Pull up on these two clips and pull the light forward a couple of inches and remove the dust cover. You have to take the air filter cover off to be able to reach in and replace the light. It took me about 10 min to figure these out but hope it helps out.

SOURCE: Air Conditioner blows hot on one side after battery DC

You need to replace the driver side temperature door control actuator. While doing this... make sure you bolt the new one in AND THEN PLUG IT IN or it will spin and not line up in the right place... then there is a series of crazy steps to fix that problem.

SOURCE: 2006 chevy trailblazer dome light will not turn off

it sounds as though you've got a wiring problem with your rear liftgate. this would cause the pin switch to think it's still open instead of closed, and the power loss to the wiper assembly. check your fuses first to see if there are any blown. then check and make sure your ground wire for the rear liftgate is clean and tight and not broken.

SOURCE: 2006 Chevy Trailblazer makes THUD when accelerating

Check your coolant level, low coolant or air in your cooling system will make a "thud"noise in your heater core when the engine is under load from acceleration. The coolant rushes in to the heater core where the air pocket is trapped and then your hear the noise.
Start with the simple and make sure your coolant level is correct and then try to purge the system to remove the air out for your coolant system.
Thank you for using fixya and good luck

Abslight stays on. How to fix? This is a2007trailblazer?

First you need to have EBCM - electronic brake control module check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's . If the light is on there is a code stored . I think most part stores can do this and for free . After you find out what code is stored , looking up that code in service repair information for diagnostic trouble shooting chart would be next step . There are a few codes too.
DTC C0035 or C0040
DTC C0045 or C0050
DTC C0110
DTC C0131
DTC C0161
DTC C0186
DTC C0196
DTC C0201
DTC C0240
DTC C0241 or P0856
DTC C0244 or P1689
DTC C0245
DTC C0283
DTC C0287
DTC C0290 or C0292
DTC C0455
DTC C0550
DTC C0558

Find the code do the diagnostic's , fix the problem , wiring issue's , a sensor , bad module ,what ever it is . The light will go out then . Here is a sample of code discription .
• DTC C0035 Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit
• DTC C0040 Right Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit

You have a check engine light on

We have been checking for codes for the last

My trailblazer will shutoff if I turn the air on when I crank it. what is the problem?

What's the problem?

You make it sound like you never need a technican
or skilled mechanic to diagnose any vehicle,sorry,they
are very high tech & beyond the driveway fix, of thirty
years ago

You have a check light on
So you should know that we would need any codes
you should have gotten by now

Need a repair shop to diagnose

I can't believe in the past 20 years, you have not had a check
lights & vehicle issues at least once a year

2006 Chevy Trailblazer Rear Tail Light

Yes there was a recall on the brake lights, but I don't believe 06+ was included. NHTSA Campaign Number: 04V527000
Manufacturer GENERAL MOTORS CORP.
Components EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Number of Units Affected 871,473

My 03 was included and fixed, but my 06 is not. Hope that clarify's. More than likely it's the same darn problem, kind of like the master door switch recall (melting). Not all years were included in the recall, BUT ALL years suffer from this problem. Maybe have them check the problem that the 03's were having.
