  • Follow me home headlights

    Hi I've a 2016 insignia sport tourer 2.0 cdti Sri ecoflex 170 vxline with Afl nav pretty much every conceivable electronic extra on car. The problem I have is the aforementioned used to work automatically when I bought the car I had light switch set to auto and timer set to 120 sec on the infotainment and when I arrived home at night I simply stopped got out the car and walked to front door whilst headlights remained on. I did not have to push or press anything to facilitate this but after a software update by Vauxhall this now has to be done manually. Any help would be appreciated in solving this. Been back to Vauxhall they don't seem to known how to go about it.

    Lights will stay on until you press lock on remote or timer if you don't lock car. If you want you can manually activate follow me home lights, lock the car, go home then timer times out.

      Exit Lighting

      The following lights switch on if the key is removed from the ignition switch:

      interior lights

      instrument panel light

      puddle lights

      They will switch off automatically after a delay. This function works only in the dark. Theatre lighting is activated if the driver's door is opened during this time.

      Path Lighting

      Headlights, tail lights and number plate lights illuminate the surrounding area for an adjustable time after leaving the vehicle.

        Hi Matt I forgot to mention it's a keyless ignition I have with 8" instrument cluster. Will this make any difference in the activation procedure?

                Hi mate got it already it's not been much help I'm afraid thanks though.
                I appreciate it. I'm led to believe vaux com tech software might be able to activate this feature through vehicle settings but I need to find someone who has software.

                    One odd thing about the lights is that you have to put the light switch in “auto” mode. When you keep it in the “on” position, approach lights will not work. Stupid implementation.

                    From another thread here.

                      Yes mate have had it in the auto position since I got the car. I will try to contact plasma thanks and see where we go from there. It would be nice to be able to go back to Vauxhall and tell them I've fixed problem myself.
