My usb lights stay on sometimes after shutting truck off .
If I start it then shut if off again most of the time they will go off a stay off.
If I open a door they will come back on and some time shut off after closing it.
Anybody else have this problem?

I asked the same question when I got my truck. What you are seeing is normal and they do go off on their own. I pretty much concluded that they were neat...but not necessary.

Mine Stay on, because I looked into truck window without opening door 2 Hours later and there still on.
The only way is starting up truck let run for half minute or so shut if off then they shut off for about 5 minutes then come back on.

I’m having the same thing happen to me. If it’s normal, than it’s normal. Personally I’d like to have them stay off.

I’ll continue to follow this thread.

I finally figured it out it’s UConnect fast charge for charging your phone. It keeps power on to your USB ports for 1 hour after shutting your truck off or opening a door after your truck is shut off. When there is power to your USB ports the outline USB lights come on also. To bad nobody knew it I finally found out about fast charge on the UConnect web site.

Is there a way to shut it off, or is it just one of those things that is what it is?

Not any way I could find, I’ll just live with it, as i was worried about it staying on all the time and running the battery down. But that's not the case now.

Those were my thoughts exactly. If it is what it is than it shouldn’t cause any issues.
