Automatic Light Control System by gabbott

Do I really have to take the vehicle to the dealer in order to change the length of time that our headlights stay on after the engine is shut down?
 
As I recall, the choices are 60, 30 and 0 seconds.
 
Does anyone know how this procedure can be done by the owner, at home?

As far as I know it can only be done at the dealer with their computer. Not sure what you are looking to do (shorten or lengthen) but if you want them to shut off sooner just click the lock button an extra time on the remote and they will go off. Thats the way it works on my '06 XLS.

On my '08 Avalon I wanted the lights to go out when I opened the door. I took the car to the dealer and he made the adjustment for free. Your choices are listed in the manual. The things you can adjust yourself have to do with the keyless entry and how the doors can be opened.

In my experience some of the cars with headlight off delay will allow you to bypass this by opening the driver door before turning the ignition off.

So I purchased a 2002 Toyota Avalon XLS and everything was going fine. Great buy but then.. My AC and heated seats and everything controlled bellow the CD player wouldn't work..
Pretty much I have nothing working bellow the CD player.
 
Could this be a fuse problem or?? Please help me.

Can you resend the instructions to turn off the seatbelt chime for the Toyota Avalon if you still have them available.
 
Thanks Tom

Power dims if press brake or try to start. No start 24 hours after wreck by brent1996
Sep 28, 2008 (6:23 am)

Any ideas on what could be causing this? Any help is appreciated!
 
Background:
I have a 1996 Avalon that was recently involved in a wreck. It was hit from the rear and then the front hit another car. The damage *looks* mostly cosmetic. I drove the car for a day without issues, then the next day it won't start.
 
Symptoms:
Put key in ignition: Dash lights up, regular "beep beep" when key is ignition.Good signs.
Turn key to "acc": Dash lights up, radio works, clock comes on, e.t.c. Good signs.
Turn key to "on": Dash dims. Multiple, rapid "click click click" appearing to come from under dash near glove compartment. Accessories/lights dim and come on with clicking.
Attempt to start car (not pressing brake pedal): Clicking stops, dash lights dim till amost off. Engine will not turn over.
Press brake pedal, with key in ignition but not trying to start: Dash lights dim till almost not visible.
Fuses checked: Main ones look good. Ignition fuse has light "browning" on it through the viewing window
 
Misc: The battery has full charge (tested it) and does not appear to lose it after sitting for days. When I first thought it was the battery I was able to get the car to start (only tried once) by jump starting it, though starting was difficult (solenoid clicking, but started didn't want to turn very well). I drove it around a bit and the dash/headlights dimmed whenever I stepped on the brake.

I have a 2000 Toyota Avalon XLS. The dash board display lights and gauges are completely dead, but the car is running just fine like it has not missed a beat. Any ideas?

Check your battery and connections. I had the same problem ane it was the battery. Replaced battery and cleaned connections, and the dash lights worked fine.
