Are you saying they never go out? How have you checked?

 

Passenger side never goes out. Drivers side very faint. I’ve checked at night after all other interior lights have gone out. Also during day by crawling under dash.

 

Which trim level Acadia do you have?

Are the footwell light original or added afterwards?

It sounds like it could also be a BCM problem or if someone replaced an original LED bulb with an aftermarket one.

The BCM usually needs to "see" a certain resistance load on the lighting circuits or the BCM will not shut down completely and allow slight current flow.

 

How do you crawl under dash after doors are closed and shut down has happened without opening a door? As soon as you open a door they go on, no?
I think the only feasible way is to wait and look thru the window, or be in the car after...

 

I have SLE2.
For Grant…… as I said, at night from outside, after car has been locked for several hours, footwell light still on.
I’ve turned courtesy light switch off at top of windshield , but footwell light still will not go out.

I’m original owner. Never touched them.

 

Then it may be a BCM problem or one of the factory LEDs is faulty and keeping the BCM light circuit powered on.
You could try finding and disconnecting the passenger side lights and see if the driver side then goes completely off after dimming.
Then try the same with the Driver side while leaving the passenger side connected.

 

Thanks everyone…..

 

You are welcome.
Please stop back and let the forum and future readers who may be helped by this know what resolves this issue.

 

Sorry this is so late. Problem with footwell lights seemed to correct itself. All now normal.
Gremlins ?? Thanks all.
