some 206s have this feature anyway. I can't remember exactly, but you have to put full beams on before you take the key out or something

On the light stick there is a button that enables auto light feature. When auto lights is on the lights stay on for about 15secs after car is locked.
Only on higher spec models though iirc.

Mine has it, and I don't have auto lights. Search "follow me home" in the search box

mine has it. gudie

1. turn off car and lights as normal
2. take key out
3. put the light stalk towards you once
4. leave the car
5. lock the car (obviously)

the lights will stay on for 30 seconds

Why would you want your lights to stay on?

Say you park in a drive with no lighting. It would help you see the front door and the key hole and your keys.. It's just extra lighting for you to get inside your house..

My GTi was different. You turn off the engine & the lights stay on for 20 seconds or so, or until you lock the car.

Thats very OLD buggy bsi software Wink

On the newer bsi software versions they changed it so you had to flash the main beam to get the dipped headlights to stay on for 30 seconds.

It was a 2002 GTi, I liked it. Never had any issues with the electrics with it. Always soft booted it etc.

The BSI software has had many tweaks / fixes / upgrades since 2002 Laughing

Nothing you can fix Wink

The bug is only very minor, not life or death & your lucky if it happens once a year Laughing

You never know, he might be a software programmer Smile

It's only hexdecimal binary in the BSI, same as the engine ecu.

Well I say "only", I can't understand it but a computer programmer could Laughing

It's either hex OR binary, can't be both.

(and stop giving me away Lee Smile )

It's hex but its related to binary, just more user friendly Laughing

Hexidecimal is a little bit better than binary, only by a smidge Razz

Its very rare to find someone coding in machine code tbh

Btw i guess this is a mux only?

Yes, but then again it would be simple to wire in to a non plexed 206 if you know what your doing Wink
