Door mirror lights.

[jb644]

Pick up new to us today a D3 R design. MY14.
Are the lights under the door mirrors suppose to come on when you lock/unlock the car?

Is the facility embedded in the cars menu system somewhere?

Thanks

From memory, the puddle lights come on when you press the light button on the remote fob.

not when you lock car no

i do believe they should come on when de activating alarm system to enter the car
from my memory there is a on/off in my car on the center stack area of your car ... as this happened to me last time i got sw on my car granted its a v60 but should be the same

regards

I think that's correct. My ones are only coming up with remote fob button

Biggest waste of of a bulb these lights.

They should come on when car is unlocked or door is opened as standard. Instead, you have to press the button. It's a right faff - especially if you have keyless. Basically you just don't end up bothering with them.

Most other makes they'll come on automatically without pressing button.

Yes I think they only come on with the pressing of the keyfob light switch.

I’ve look through the Mycar menu and can’t see an option for them to come on when unlocking the car.
