Why do truck bed lights turn on and off?
Pull the switch out of the box and tape up the leads until you get the new switch. The fault is in the switch as it is in the fender and subjected to water, sand, salt, everything. I have a 2017 XLT, exact same problem you all have described, lights turn on and off when truck is not on, no key in the ignition.

I unscrewed and took off the left tail light, Disconnected it and put it to one side. Then the switch is in the bottom hole on the side of the truck.

Why does my cruise control light turn off?
They will turn off if I roll lights as it is supposed to. The E brake idiot light stays lit and is the only one on the guage cluster that does this. The cruise control works sometimes.

Why does the back up alarm light not come on?
The back up alarm switch will turn off by itself and lights up and will not turn on when switch is pressed. The radio light will turn off by itself sometimes and come back on. All instrument panel lights and odometer, temp, direction guage works fine.
