Default interior lights

I have a white and gold 95 Jeep grand cherokee leardo with the Straight 6. my interior lights won't shut off unroll the battery dies. I just put in a new overhead center and now my key remote don't work either. I pulled the fuse so their not working now but I would really like to fix it... Any ideas? Ive also replaced the auto dimming power rear view mirror with a regular mirror, so the mirror isn't plugged in because I couldn't find the right mirror at upull yards.

Which fuse number did you pull also what amp rating? Do all you lights stay on? Does you overhead console work?

Not sure that I can help. I want to study the wiring diagram with your info to see. It is a complicated wiring diagram, at least for me. The remote keyless entry module does connect to a yellow wire that connects to your overhead console.

But my service center display don't say that a door is ajar. It tells me when a door, rear hatch, or hood is open and it don't say any are... wouldn't it say it was open?
