    I think that is automatic, when the truck senses the FOB is within range...!! I doubt you can change that..

    Ps.. I might be older and stupider... is that a word..?

    yeah, carista/techstream or a trip to the dealer would be the only way to change it.

    I don't know if this is the answer, but try turning your headlight switch to Auto.

    Is that something that was changed on the 17? It wasn't previously adjustable on the head unit. Last column is for dealer only.
