Auto Head Light off delay adjustment for Nismo?

Zuppy51 · 12-09-2010, 04:24 PM

I'm not having any luck finding this info.
Can they be adjusted BY YOU, if you don't have the factory onscreen nav?

How does one adjust this? Mine are set to 45secs and I would like to shorten it.

I've read the manual, page 2-31: refers to 4-14. Where nothing is described for a Nismo...

According to this thread, this is a DEALER adjusted only:

Is that the only option?

Auto off headlights?

Yes, dealer only. It's just like the base model.

Sorry, dealer only for both length of time, and sensitivity to automatically turning on.

You must have the NAV factory option to adjust them yourself. Stupid, but that's how Nitwitsan does it.

Thanks Guys! Bummer! I guess I'll wait till I have a good enough reason to let them touch my car....

yah, i hate the delay-off feature too. just drains my battery.

i end up shutting off the car and then just manually shutting off the headlights.

I like the feature. That way, when I get out of my car and walk away, people say, "Hey! You left your lights on!" and I say, "YeahIknow".

I like the feature too but 45s is over kill. Maybe 15s would be nice.

Yeah. It's pretty excessive. I end up looking out of my front door to make solute that they go out.

45 seconds? I thought they stay on for 5 minutes? My dealer wanted to charge me $80 to set the delay to 0seconds, so I just manually turn it off.
