Default Side Marker Lights

Are the side marker lights suppose to come on when you hit lock or unlock on the fob?
Thanks!

They'll come on when you push unlock. Not when you lock it.

Thank you! I was thinking they did. I just installed led rear reflector lights and they light with side markers when lights are on. I don't think any of my markers are lighting when I hit unlock on my fob?

I just installed rear reflector LED lights. I hooked them to the brake lights. I don't think you want them on all the time.

Yes I did want them on with lights, not as brake lights.

That’s how I have mine. They only come on when the lights are on. Way better than just the OEM reflectors 👍
