Default Approach Lights

Ive done a search but can't really find much except there is some sort of bug with the approach light settings?

Id like the headlights to be on.. dipped beam.. or the lower LED.. are they suppose to be on? or is there a way?

Ive got it selected for 30 seconds but the only lights that turn on are the wing mirror lights, rear lights and the daytime running light (I think its called (its like a tiny light on the headlight))

So dipped beam.. any ideas? would be useful for when Im opening the door at home when exiting as well..

approach lights are not those which come on when you press the button on the remote .
They are the dip beam ... the last thing you do before getting out the car is flash the headlamp stalk , the headlamps will then stay on for 30 seconds ... then go off.
