Well, I've read the manual (pretty vague) about the pathway lighting. I got it to work the first time by turning off the engine, flicking my stalk as if to pass, then the pathway lighting came on for approximately 40 seconds as I had it set.

I wanted them to stay on longer, so I changed it to 90s and now it refuses to work at all. Same scenario, but now when I flick the stalk, my brights come on and then go off. I changed it back to 40s and nothing.

Does anyone use this feature, and what are the steps you take? Possibly I'm missing something.... Thanks in advance for the help.

 

Did you take the key out first? I'm pretty sure it only comes on after you take the key out and then flick the stock to the high beams.

 

I have the Convenience Pkg, so that makes it even more confusing....

 

Perhaps they should have called it the Confusion Package?

 

No sh*t.

 

Even though I have the Conv. Pkg. I tried using the key. I shut off the engine, removed the key, opened the door and flicked the high beams. Pathway Lighting worked like a charm. Question is though, doing the exact thing without the key fob it will not work. Makes no sense to me....

 

I also have the Conv. Pkg. and i just went out to the car with out the key fob knowing the car was unlocked from the last trip two hours ago and flipped the stalk and the lights came on and stayed on for 90 seconds and then went off.

So as i wee it the key fob is not needed to make the system work.

Just for the fun of it I went out five minutes later and it worked as well with out the key fob.

 

Well, thanks for checking it out for me. Moondoggie refuses to keep his eyes open for me without his fob. It might be time for a trip to the dealership.

 

Taking the key out disables the rest of the electronics so for those with the convenience package maybe try pressing the Start/Stop button a 2nd time after you stop the car and then try the pathway lighting.

 

Mine does this. I turn the engine off, take the keys out and then flick the High Beams. It stays on for about 30 seconds on mine. Mind you, I have a R53.

Not sure if it works any differently?
