Hey, ive noticed that the number plate lights come on when i unlock the car and stay on a few seconds after its locked, Is there anyway that the sidelights/headlights can be connected to this circuit?

When u leave the car if u flash your headlight the dipped beam and the revers lights will come on for 30 seconds
Also means that when the number plate lights are on the boot is unlocked.
If only Vauxhall were to put this information in writing and then leave it in the glovebox for people to read
they do, its called the handbook
Plasma's Tech2 services are now open and able to provide services
Didn't get one of them when i bought the car unfortunately! This site would be useless if nobody had any Questions
as for the boot being unlocked if the number plate lights are on well its not??? but think thats a separate issue as I can only open the boot with the key...
And neither the headlights or sidelights come on/stay on when i unlock/lock the car?......should they? the dash lights etc come on when i unlock
Thanks for the quick replies guys...
Mine don't come on either just the number plate and dash would also like to have lights come on when unlock the car
Do you have a key slot or just a button in the boot?
When you unlock the car, the second press the whole car unlocks and then the number plate lights come on. If you open the door and close it but do nothing else they should stay on for about 10 minutes. As long as they are on the boot is unlocked.
If you have a key slot, then depending what position the key slot is in when you remove the key could mean one of three things. 1, It is always locked, accept when the key is used. 2, it opens when the whole car is unlocked, 3, its always unlocked. Thats if I remember correctly.
Owner's handbook is readily available for download from Vauxhall:

That's for a 2007 model, but applies to pretty much any facelift model.
Pre-facelift manual is no longer on Vauxhall's site. But you can get it from here:

(I found those about a week before I bought my Vectra by typing 'vectra owners manual download' into Google)

Found the door to door lighting guide, just tried it and it worked...
But is their a way to get the headlights to illuminate upon unlocking as well?
