Did you flick the stalk for full/high beam by accident? It's called Coming Home Lights...

Not sure tbh. Mine go off straight away. I wonder if there's a "get me home" setting.

I think its either got something to do with configuration or a software version. my 206 (2003) does the whole 40 second light thing automatically and it even says its meant to in the manual. My 406 (2004) ones turn off as soon as you turn the engine off. If you flash the lights after switching off then the follow me home lighting activates.

This is normal. They are follow me home lights and stay on for 30 secs or until you lock the car. To turn on/off turn key 2 clicks then press and hold button one ends of left stalk.

Only on the very VERY old BSI software versions, its removed on the newer software versions & changed so you have to flick the light stalk Wink

Your car must still be running 2003 BSI software Shocked

My 03 plate you have to flick the stalk as its running 2007 BSI software.

my car has the follow me home function, but ive found if you just click the key back one click so the engine stops and leave it there for a second then the lights will go off without the 30sec delay. my cars a 2002 02. Thanks charlie for telling me how to turn auto lights on by the way. im so sad i think its brilliant lol
