From my own notes: "To retrofit interior light delay module, disconnect brown/purple from RH door switch, and replace with brown/yellow (spade connector) taped up with brown/purple single male socket.
Connect brown/purple (ex. door switch) to this socket.
If no door handle switch is fitted, connect TK and TG pins on the module together."
I normally connect the pins together by opening up the module and soldering a wire link to the circuit board, since this involves no bodging of the loom, but it can be done externally by cutting the brown/green a couple of inches from the socket, then splicing this two inch wire to the brown/yellow wire.
If you want the module to work on the passenger door as well, you need to disconnect the brown/purple from that as well, and run a wire from the switch to connect to the brown/yellow as well.
