How to Turn off Jeep Wrangler Interior Lights?

Jeep Wrangler/JK interior lights are getting gimmicky day by day. Because of some internal error with the system, the interior light won’t turn off, and if the button somehow got jammed, it won’t turn on.

Quick Answer: To turn off Jeep Wrangler interior lights there are two buttons on the sides of the light, push them, and it should turn the lights off. To turn off the cargo area lights, just press on the light itself to turn it off.

If your interior won’t turn off even after pushing the button, maybe the fuse is jammed, one of your doors is open, or the light button is set to stay “ON” all the time.

To get started you may need:

Check the rear dome light

Similar to the front dome light, the rear dome light can be turned on and off just by pressing it.

When loading or unloading items from the rear, people often tap it by accident, and your children may tap the button again and again.

You don’t need to worry! Even if the light is still on, it will turn off within 15 minutes.

Jeep’s interior lights are controlled by the switch. Interior lights can also be adjusted by the position of the switch.

Set the knob to “ON” and slide it back one notch to enable the inside lights to turn on when the door is opened and off when it is closed.
