So then the diagram I drew up last, should work providing the confirmation of power when door open?

Ok,  found out ( and excuse my ignorance if I use wrong terms ) that when the door plunger is pushed in, it breaks the circuit, an when the door plunger comes out, it completes the circuit causing the light to come on.

Also, if i hook it up the way drawn up, if its wrong, will I blow the pulse timer?

Ok, wait, I just got some new info.  The coumn light comes on when the doors open and shus off when door closes ( this I can wire up no problem )The key hole light is what will stay on for 10 seconds.

SO, would I wire it like so:

Door switch wire into yellow 30 common.  red + from keyhole light to brown 87 normally open.  black from timer ground and red from timer to constant power?

So the only one you want to have timed is the keyhole light?
The diagram you drew ealier should still be okay, just remove wire to the column light if you don't want that on the timer. The common 30 should go to your keyhole light, not the door switch wire- reverse it from what you just described.

Yes just the keyhole light needs the timing feature.

Door switch to 87 brown normally open.  Red + from keyhole light to 30 yellow common.  Black from timer to a ground.  Red from timer to a constant power. 

All other wires, orange 87a not used, black with stripe not used and leave the bue looped wire uncut.

87 to constant power
black with stripe to the Door switch wire (this is the trigger)

dualsport, wired up like we talked about, but somthings not rght.  First off, when I wire in the column light, its very dim, and also dims the dome light light.  Second, when I have it all installed, the column light dont come on.  Third, the keyhole light does do the timer delay, but not every time the door opens.  Like I open the door and the light comes on, stays on for the duration set, then clicks off.  If I open the door right after goin out, the light doesnt come back on.  Its like the relay has to reset or something???

Im gonna go back out today and mess around with it, to see if I can cancel out any problems, but if you can think of something ( or anybody for that matter ) please post up.  Thanks.
