Lust joined and looking for the way to turn off the park lights when you open the door function.
When away with the caravan and I open a door during the night it lights up like a Christmas tree , for a good 5 minutes !

Not sure on any programming fixes but if I ever plug into a px1 I will see if there is a way around it. There is no silent mode as such.

Try opening the door and flash the high beams, I have tried it and if I remember right it worked for me but it was a long time ago. I would try it myself to confirm but my ute is in pieces at the moment...

Yep, this is what I do automatically on a daily basis,
I park the car, turn off ignition and flick the hi-beam, it cancels out the headlights so you don't have to wait that enduring 60 seconds, however the parkers still reside until you keyfob lock.
