Delay door light - Toyota Yaris Forums

Kitt · 10-02-2006, 03:23 PM

Does anyone know how can i do to delay the door light when the door is closed? i understand that the newer models have this feature but mine does not

Any help?

you could prob install a small capasitor...

I'm not sure what size capasitor you would need though......

If you're refering to the "theater fade" style dome lighting, I could try to find one of my old modules for that.

Kitt · 10-05-2006, 02:20 PM

Yup exactly that's what i want

paultyler_82 · 10-05-2006, 03:21 PM

I'll see what I can find, pretty sure I've got a circuit schematic for that somewhere.

Guys can someone take a picture of a 2006 or 2007 Yaris dome lamp and post it? if you can open it or take a picture of the back side it will be better!!!

I'll appreciate it...

... This is actually a setting that can be set by your dealer. Call them and ask them if they have the Equipment to do it.

Read it in the Interior Electronics/Electronics section of the Repair Manual, there are a BUNCH of settings that can be set.

Sets for 0sec Fade, 1sec Fade, 3sec Fade, 5 sec Fade, 10 and 15 I believe.

can this be possible in my 2005 model?

Ayka · 10-11-2006, 04:46 PM

Im not sure, the Repair Manual I have is for a 07Model Year (06 Release year) Yaris

Mine have this feature...is starts to fade...for several secs...it even gives me time to be in front of the car..and watch it fade and go off completly...

gabagooo · 12-01-2006, 06:16 PM

I asked this very question on another forum. I was told that the setting can be changed by the dealer. I have an appointment next week to have my reset. I'll repost then and let you know who the appointment went.

Kitt · 12-01-2006, 07:31 PM

yeah but my point is this: my car does not even have that as an option, it is a Yaris '05 HB... what i need is a circuit that can store power for 15 secs on the negative pole since when the door is closed the ground gets interrupted instead of the positive.

gabagooo · 12-08-2006, 11:26 AM

I just returned form the dealer - they are NOT able to reporgram the dome light on the 3 Door LB sold inthe USA. Oddly, the light stays on for 15 seconds after placing the car in park and removing the key.

gabagooo · 01-23-2007, 08:10 PM

I contacted Toyota directly and they have confirmed that the delay CAN be changed. So back to the dealer I will go.

gabagooo · 06-19-2007, 06:21 PM

I went to the dealer again for another issue and asked again about having the dome light reprogramed. I was told that the dome light on my model of Yaris CAN NOT be programed. Sad.
