> Actually, it's hard to tell the difference between running lights and headlights--they both come from the "headlights" unit, but running lights are slightly dimmer. Also, running lights, on many vehicles, come on without the parking lights coming on, so that would be another way to check.

These are the biggest and brightest lights on the vehicle. They do not turn off.

> You had also mentioned the sliding door not being openable from the inside--that sounds like child safety locks to me.

That's what I figured.

> Pretty much all vehicles here in Canada have them on all rear doors (including sliding doors), and basically, when active, they prevent the door from being opened from the inside under any circumstance. The child safety lock switch is usually located on the door in question, and is only accessible when the door is open--look for a small switch on the front of the door (front being the same as the front end of the vehicle). If you find one, it may or may not be labelled, but try it--you may suddenly find your door openable from the inside. :-)

Nope, I looked all over, and there was no switch.
