Exit Lighting Question....

RE: Exit Lighting Question....
Can someone tell me who's bright idea it was to have the Reverse lights go on with Exit and Approach lighting, and can it be changed so exit lighting works without the reverse lights? It actually causes problems in parking lots. People stop and wait thinking I'm about to back out of the spot when I've just pulled into it... More than once, people have actually stopped, and watch me get out of the car, unload the baby's stoller and load the baby into the stroller before realizing that I'm not backing out of the spot.
Because of this I've turned exit lighting off even though I would like it on. Any suggestions?

I have tried the exit mirror lights on our 07 Suburban, and 07 Tahoe. They both do
the same light up only when unlocking with remote.
All GMs, and some other brands have the reverse lights light up when you exit the vehicle.
It is to help you see behind the car. I would not worry about others thinking you are backing
out, if they sit there and watch you while you are out of your vehicle, I would worry about
their frame of mind.

According to the manual you can only set the amount of time or turn it off. You can't select which lights. I would suggest the 30 second setting. They will figure it out soon enough that way.

If they're dumb enough to think you're backing up, when they can clearly see that you're outside of the vehicle and walking away, I would worry about THEM, not my lights. I woule leave them set. As long as someone thinks you're backing up, they'll leave you room to walk. It's a safety feature I can live with.

LOL I say wait till they go out and when someone starts to walk behind the vehicle hit the button again to make them come back on!
