KV1 Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I have a 2017 CrossRoads. Recently the interior lights stay on dimmly all the time. They light up when I press the brake pedal. The rearview camera is also just a black screen. Anyone have the same problem or ideas on how to fix it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John/Horace Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 What happened with the previous Bluetooth issue, was it a sick doa Bluetooth module? Low voltage from a dead battery sometimes creates weird problems. Any recent battery recharging events. Try unhooking main battery feed using one of the remote contacts under hood for 5 mins, not in fender well. Might reset something. Bad grounds can can create very weird issues like this. It’s newish at 2017 but corrosion is still possible, lots of grounds mounted near top of strut towers under hood. On Hyundai cars I had, the grounds in this location that had to be cleaned, paint removed to bare metal, thin film of dielectric grease and reassembled. Not fun with the present weather.

KV1 Posted January 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 The Bluetooth issue was solved by disconnecting the battery and waiting an hour. Has worked fine ever since. I will try that again for the interior light problem. I had some transmission work done a couple weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejizzle Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 Take a look at the rear wiring that goes to the door, there are probably some bad wires that need repairing, I believe that should fix your issue. Kindly let us know if this helps. Summer Solstice and 2late4u 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KV1 Posted January 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 Disconnected the battery for a good while and tried to access the wires you guy mentioned. I couldn't find any wires that looked off. Reconnect the battery and now everything seems to be working normally again. I guess I have to treat my vehicle like I do my desktop computer. Power it right down periodically. Thanks for all your help. Summer Solstice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 Sounds like you need a battery. They usually have a 5 year service life and, when they get weak you start having issues. 2late4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Posted July 14, 2022 Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 I recently started having this issue with the interior lights staying on and getting brighter when I brake. First thing I should do is disconnect the battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KV1 Posted July 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2022 Yes. Disconnect the battery for a half hour. That solves the problem for me. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
