Totally counter intuitive.

What has off has to do with turning on.

As I understand, the change was to set the instant off delay to 7 seconds delay. Maybe I missed something.

OK, the puddle lights worked, then they didn't, I looked at the settings and for some reason, under the "External Lights Off Time Adj" it said "off", I changed it to "7 sec" and now the puddle lights work again.
