Interior lights.

So here is the problem, when I shut the truck off, I hit the interior light to stay on so I can gather up my crap and get out of the truck. The light stays on for about 10-15 seconds and then shuts off leaving me in the dark. The same thing happens if I just open the door to grab something out, the light comes on for way too short of a time, and then it is dark again. Is there a way to make the int.lights stay on longer so I'm not sittng in the dark? It is very frusterating. The manual states that the int. lights should stay on for like 60 seconds or something like that but they are shutting off after no more than 10-15 seconds at the most, not enough time to grab 1/2 my crap out of the truck that I need. Dealer said he has no clue. What can I do?

I had the same issue:

There is also a TSB for the problem. I believe it is:
Dome light turning off too soon / Overhead temp inaccurate TSB 08-026-06
