Hi all,

Picked up my new 500x cross last week and so far so good until tonight!

1st issue - lights didn't auto switch off when engine stopped. Had to restart engine to manually turn them off.

2nd issue - handbrake light on dash remains on even with engine off. Handbrake is definitely on when car is parked but dash light remains on still.

All a bit weird!!! Can anyone shed some light?

Hi,
Re the lights, you can adjust the time they stay on, its called follow me home. Designed to give you some light as you walk away from your car. I have to double check mine go off! I Presume that's what you are seeing.

The hand brake light does stay on.
check the handbook there are so many features to get to grip with. If in doubt ring your dealership.

As said, light for handbrake stays on for quite a while so as you can check that the handbrake is still on.

Does the auto handbrake come on automatically when you switch the ignition off?

Does the auto handbrake come on automatically when you switch off the ignition,or do you need to apply it yourself,thanks

Yeah, I have to look out the window before I go to bed to make sure everything looks 'off'!
