Can you try the door handles during the I/O test?
I think the interior lights come on via switches on the door handles. The door ajar would have to use a different switch.

Any ideas? I checked the connections on the MALL and they all seem to be tight.

Thanks again

It looks like all the switches are working properly. Might be time to get a new (JY) mall.

Will a MALL from any matching year donor car work or does it need to be the same trim level?

Jack has a good question, also is it model-specific or do all H-bodies have the same MALL unit? Also, is there different years? The reason I ask these questions is the selection at my local JY'* isn't too great bonneville-wise.

The Mall shoudl be swappable. The RFA supposedly requires programming.

Once you get under the passenger dash and see the modules, they are merely held to the plastic by a tab. Push in on the tab and wiggle the module off the plastic frame. Unhook connectors.

thanks boosty, as soon as the weather permits, i will head down to the j/y and grab 2-3 of them (as many as I can find, actually) as well as a power antenna or 2

I'll be sure to post as to the outcome, and thanks to all who gave assistance
