How do you activate the Go Home Lights? Mine came on once and didn't realize what they were at the time.

Turn the ignition off before you turn the lights off, activates them!

If the lights are on, switch the ignition off, before the switching the lights off. The delay will then be in effect.

T4 can also programme the tail lights and the number plate light to be illuminated at the same time using this switch off method. If this option is or was enabled.

Turn off the ignition key before the H/Lamps and they will stay on for whatever duration has been set by T4 - there a several delay setting I believe! - also applies to any other lights that have been set to stay on vie T4 as well

HTH?

im not sure what setting it is on now,

anyway my windscreen wipers.....when i stop....they also stop

whats the story behind that?

i realise that it can save on your wiper blades, but it can be quite a danger.....

when you go to pull off it takes a couple of seconds for them to kick in again and clear the screen.

so when its chucking it down i have to clear them manually before i move off or i cant see

windscreen wipers revert to the next setting down when you stop, so,
if you have them on intermittent they stop,
if you have them on slow they go to intermittent
if you have them on fast they go to slow

The first time I came across the feature was on a 90"s E36 BMW.
