Why won't the running lights shut off

The running lights both front and back come on randomly. When I manually turn the lights off using the interior dial, they shut off temporarily but come back intermittently.

The running lights are low level lights and not full power like the headlights. They are designed to work in daytime only.

You should have a switch to turn them off. Mine is on the steering wheel turn signal stalk.
hope this helps

I suggest you try one of those instant download manuals. My nephew bought one for me when my car broke and we could fix it all by ourselves with the manual costing $10. This website reliable-store.com is very good for this.
?Try it.

My interior lughts won't go out when the doors are closed after the van is shut off

Could be the front electronic module. The module has a timer that holds the lights on for about 60 seconds after you exit the van.

The Alarm keeps going off , previous owner cut the horn wires so that part doesnt work but the lights just randomly start blinking and going on and off and cant cut it off. remote key chain is no longer...

The day time running light module on the back side of the front drivers fender likely needs to be replaced to fix your problem.Unplug it and the lights will work normally from the headlight switch but the day time running lights won,t work and also the high beam indicator light in the dash won,t come on when you switch to high beam but all the lights will work properly.You should replace the drl module as soon as you can but unplugging it will at least keep you from having to remove a battery cable.

Dim interior lights, power locks wont work......

Try looking at your battery. Check the cables to make sure they are tight and clean. Brush the corrosion off with a wire brush. Now, if you have a wiring schematic, find the ground for the interior lights and clean it up too. Oh, put vasoline on it, and the battery cables, to keep them corrosion free. Check the other grounds in the car cabin too.
