hrm...I always thought this was a blazer thing, but I guess not if it killed your battery....but whenever I forget to turn a light off, be it map light, dome light, after about 5-10 minutes (same delay as when power is cut to the radio after you pull the key out but don't open the door), the lights go off. I thought it was a battery saving thing...did someone at some point enable this in my blazer then?

weird...now I have to invesitgate why my power cuts off after a few minutes...maybe i've got one of those batteries with a anti-drain circuit? hrmmm..

windir id say check your door pins. i'd say one probably got snapped off and so all the circuits are running for an open door.

Sounds like a faulty door switch somewhere. I can't look for it right now, but I know there have been a few threads on this with pretty detailed steps for troubleshooting.

If you have a dome over ride button, push that until you can get stuff figured out.
