So recently my car has done two weird things and to my knowledge I haven't had a software update in awhile and I'm still on 1.6

1. After exiting and locking my car the lights will stay on for 5+ minutes. How can I adjust this?
2. Whenever a door is opened the door chime goes NONstop where as it used to play for maybe 3 seconds or so, but now it will not stop until a door is closed. How do I adjust this?

thanks!

Did you reboot it?

1. Sounds to me like you have all of the cabin lights turned on and the battery saver is just kicking in
2. Is this car on or off?

Are the lights set to on (not Auto)? Seems to be a common mistake on here - at least two threads about it.

1. No idea, no interior lights are usually one. This is when I have exited the car
2. Either on OR off it does this

I had this happen to me once. The lights got switched out of auto into ON. Just put them back in auto and it should solve it.

There's a button by the driver's map light that you can toggle all of the lights at once. Try pushing it to see if that helps
