Welcome lights

My LEDs no longer turn on when I unlock the vehicle. Can someone provide some insight as to why? I swear it used to work when I left it option 0 for lighting and it would still work.

Did you by any chance uncheck the checkbox in Settings > Lighting?

Yes the option is still checked if you are referring to the welcome lights option.

I was actually referring to the checkbox for Daytime Running Lights.

The light switch needs to be in Auto or Position 2 (Low Beams) for the Welcome Lights to activate when the vehicle is unlocked and they do so depending on the ambient brightness. They never come on when the light switch is in Position 0.
