Just had a quick look around the forum for the headlights of a PX3 Ranger to turn on at night when the car is unlocked from a distance using the fob? Also to stay on for a period of time when the car is locked? Had a look on Forscan and the cars menu and couldn't find anything.

Thanks

They may have removed it, check if the option of time is available in the RH cluster, settings/vehicle/lighting.

Thanks. Nothing there. I'll need to double check but I think before turning off the car, if I flash my high beams the headlights stay on for a bit but don't come on when I return to the car and press unlock.

Send me a PM to remind me, I will plug PX3 cluster in next week and give you some changes to enable the menu.

It may have been disabled due to MY19 having HIDS.

I loaded IPC asbuilt from a MY19 Wildtrak and see these options in the cluster, are you saying you do not see them? If not send me VIN.

I see those options and I take it that headlamp delay is when I flash the high beams prior to getting out of my car at night which keep my headlights on.

I probably should've worded it better but they do not come on when I unlock the car at night, only the day time running lights illuminate which do next to nothing.

Thanks
