Default Coming/Leaving Home Lights

All:

I noticed that with the coming/leaving home feature along with the mirror lights and DRL LEDs the Fog lights also come on. Because I have HID fog lights I figured having them come on an doff so frequently may not be good for the ballast module. As a result I have turned off the coming/leaving home feature.

Does anyone know of any way (perhaps through a vag-com mod) to turn the fog lights off with this feature?

Thanks.

I think if you take your headlight setting off "Auto" the fog's won't come on at approach....

Maybe...

hmm...werid! If I have the light setting off, DRL, foglight will not turn on when I lock and unlock. If I have it on Auto, then DRL and foglight will come on when unlock and will stay on for a while when I lock it.

I had a feeling that I may have done something wrong. I tried it again and sure enough it WORKED.

Thanks Soni and Chicken, you guys rock. I kindda like it not being on Auto, I notice on auto that the headlights would often go off each time I drove under a bridge and back off again, pretty sensitive, this is better.

Thanks again guys.
