Twilight delay?
Hello everyone; New to C5 Vettes, have had 3 older models in the past. I'm still trying to figure out some things.
On the twlight option, what is the delay for? Turning lights on after startup? Turning them off when it gets daylight?
Currently, If I'm parked in the carport, start the enging, the lights come on instantly, I drive off, and the lights don't go off for at least a minute, sometimes 4 or 5
Help????
Thank you....Tom Woodgeard

I turned this OFF because my AE is stored in the garage each night. I see no reason to have the headlight motors operate each morning as I go to work.
Given all the problems of worn gears in these motors, I just don't see the need in cycling them so often.
