Does anyone know how to reset the timer on the courtesy light(under dash lights) circuit. I have a 2006 z-21. The lights shut off (time out) after about 5 minutes or so. I'm told this is so they won't run the battery down. I am installing a set of Blue Wave LED lights in the boat and I am wiring them into this circuit. It will be a pain to go back and punch the button every 5 min or so, especially if I'm fishing at night, which is what these things are for. I just want to shut off the auto off or extend the time out as far as it will go. Thoughts? Comments? Experiences?? the Ranger plant is shut down till after the first of the year, so can't call them till then.

Having installed the lights in my boat, and looking to redo them this winter, I suggest that you don't want to have the deck lights and locker lights on the same circuit. The lights on deck are too bright to fish with at full power so they need to be on a dimmer control. The locker lights can be left at full power so you can run them on your nav lights circuit.
No idea about your timer though.
