Title: courtesy lamp
Post by: Fazeel on 18 August 2010, 13:02:07

I dont understand the funtion of the courtesy lamp,
I mean I read somewhere to pull the light switch and I did,
so how does it work now ??

Do the lights stay on after I exit the car for a short period of time ??

Lights come on when door open and remain on with door open.

Go out about 15 seconds after door closed OR ignition on OR central locking activated

Pull the light switch out, lights on and stay on until switch pushed back in ...

Well .. thats what mine do anyway !!!!

I THINK the courtesy light is on a timer so even when switched on it will go off after a period of time when the car is left.
Might be worth an experiment.
