Ford Crown Victoria Though they were what most people drove in the 1950s and 1960s, full-size cars like the Ford Crown Victoria are now an anomaly. But Ford's biggest sedan still offers significant virtues, including affordable V8 performance and room for six people. Today, the Crown Victoria's passenger and cargo volumes compare favorably against fashionable SUVs.

Default 2000 crown vic autolamp cycles on/off

My 2000 crown vic has a problem with the auto lamp. With auto lamp in on mode and key out of ignition, headlights and interior lights cycle on/off when night falls. With auto lamp off, headlights stay off, but interior lights still cycle on/off in approx 30 sec interval. I have to pull the fuse to make it stop. Once the sun comes up, I put the fuse back.
Any ideas?

Thanks

That might explain why the keypad does not unlock the door. However the keypad lights up when the interior lights illuminate.
