Can you guys please fill me in how normal running board lights function? Is there a way to disable them other then physically unplugging them? They don't appear to be tied into the dome lights. I've read somewhere that they are supposed to turn off in ~30 mins if the door is left open/ajar??

Very helpful thanks.



For anyone searching the forums and comes across this thread, here's what I found in the pdf manual:

Lighting the running boards and the ground helps you easily to get in and out of the vehicle in the night. The lights come on when any of the side doors is opened.

The lights remain on for about 15 seconds after all the side doors are closed.
However, in the following cases, the light go off immediately. 
- All the side doors and back door are closed and locked.
-The vehicle speed reaches 8 km/h (5 mph) or higher.

When any of the side doors and back door is unlocked using either the key or
the wireless remote control transmitter, the lights will come on and remain on for
about 15 seconds before fading out. To prevent the battery being discharged,
the light will automatically turn off when the key is removed and the door is left
opened for 30 minutes or more.
