The only time the parking lights come on when using the remote start is after I press the unlock button on the key fob.
The manual says the parking lights should come on, but they don't. I'm still reading through the owners manual to see if that setting can be altered or not via the DIC.

remote starter
I have found that recently, every once in a while, the parking lites come on at nite when I start it. No rhyme or reason. But what I have found that works consistently for me, is to first unlock the HHR with the remote, immediately lock it with the remote, then use the starter and the parking lights come on and stay on like they are suppose to at nite ,everytime.

I was wondering if anyone has encountered this situation:
When using the remote starter during the day, the parking lights come on when you start it and stay on(like the manual says they are suppose to do), however when remote starting at nite, the parking lites don't come on at all.
Have I got a problem or is this the way they all work?
I hate to let the dealer get their hands on my HHR if I can avoid it! Thanks.
