Crown Vic Dome Light

We got an old PD Crown Vic for use as a chief's car at our FD. It has the dome light inoperative option from the factory so the dome light doesn't come on when you open the doors. Is there a simple way to hook the dome lights back up to normal operation?

To re-enable the domelights to turn on when a door is opened, seperate the blue male and female single wire connectors on the passengers side of the car under the glove box. Then disconnect the battery leads from the car battery, leave disconnected for a couple minutes, and reconnect. "Dark car" option should now be disabled. Note: A pair of pliers may be useful to seperate the connectors, they can be very stubborn and not want to pull apart from one another easily. If you get desperate, cutting the single black wire running out of the connector will work as well. Make sure to tape up the exposed ends if you choose this route.
