you will have several options to enable here.

The exterior path lighting is a Standard feature, the interior ambiant lighting is part of Premium Package.

This is suppose to illuminate the ext. door handle... correct?

No! should it be there?

[X5FX]

yes, plus it really illuminates the ground along the entire side of the vehicle. See my photos in post 2...the white light on the ground is from these lights.

[Denalio]

Mmmm..maybe it is part of the ambient package in premium package?

[X5FX]

according to the Ordering Guide it is Standard

You do understand these only come on during certain situations. If the car is locked, leave it alone for several minutes, then push the "lock" button on the key...it should activate these lights.

...but he has checked and there is no lense under the handle so it's not there. I think it may be part of the Premium Package "light package" I think it's option 563.

he is in the US...we have different options.

In the US manual page 97 it describes "Pathway Lighting"...all the optional items have an asterick (*)...Pathway does not have an *

[trueX5er]

it is standard...thats strange...wait...don't you have Comfort Access? Try hitting "unlock" after the car is locked.
