Hi All I just bought a 2005 Buick Lesabre Limited and, even though 171000 miles I pulled the trigger. It is a very clean car and, runs great looking at you would never guess the mileage or age. I really like this car got for 3995.00 and, the only question I have is when you lock the car using the remote at night the parking lights stay on for almost 10 minutes is this normal?

Welcome to the forums. Was there a menu to see the delayed entry and exit lighting times? Longes I seen was 2 mins and that was long. How is your voltage and startability the next time you start the car?

Hello and Welcome from another new member .. 10 mins seems like an awfully long time did you actually time it ?

Thanks guys and, it seemed it took longer than five minutes the other night. So I had it checked out and, the batter cable was lose on the postive side. I'm going to test this tonight and, I got to say this a real nice car.

Welcome! Hopefully the battery cable was the problem. Keep us posted!

Thanks Guys and, everything is fine now maybe it was the loose battery cable. I also replaced the batteries in the remotes. I'm really impressed with this car rides real smooth run great and, the previous owner really did a great job of the upkeep of the car. Have a goos night Guys.
