Default Dome Light

2014 JK Unlimited Willy's edition. What have people been doing to bypass the dome light/ door ajar message when removing their doors? Full doors.

Unplugging the door wiring harness should take care of it.
Why would that edition be different?

Did you try to take off the door yet? Even doors with out power have wiring believe it or not.

Yeah, all JK doors have a wire harness, power or not. The ones without power will be a small 2 wire harness to handle the door switch.

Glad you found it.
Be careful when you unhook the retaining strap.
If the door swings free the mirror can dent the cowl.
