Left the lights on overnight...

Hey Gang, the battery died on my TL today for the 1st time. I left the lights set to ON overnight and forgot to turn them off. (my new car has lights auto on and off if left in a certain setting...)

I thought the TL lights turned off after 15 or 30 seconds depending on the setting, no?

I didn't know you have to SET it for 1st???

All you have to do is press LOCK on your Key fob your Lights will turn off if you want to leave you lights on.....at least it works for me

set the knob on the left side to auto... <- shocking news

on overpasses the headlights turn on when you exit they turn off

when you shut off the ignition in the dark... headlights turn off...

ps. if the car is beeping when you open ur door... you left something on or your key in the ignition
