it is a pdf document of about 123kb so not too large.

Offline so can't check.

After looking through it, I now realise that the light is actually
only activated for 2 minutes so that is not really a long enough time
as opposed to being too long. Could your method give me a bit more
control over the actions that are available to me now ?

Yes.

Slightly more complicated, in that you would probably need to get a
Permanent L as well as a Switched L from the gate, but you can get
electronic relays with adjustable delay-on and delay-off settings. Using
one of those instead of the ordinary relays would allow you considerable
flexibility over controlling the lights.

You could also have additional switches to put the lights on in parallel
with the relay contacts, such as PIR sensors further up the drive.

What Owain says. Also, as the Courtesy Light Output is only rated at
40W, using an interface relay would allow you to have a larger lighting
load if necessary/desirable.

Can you post a clear photograph of the controller circuit board, so we
can try and figure out whether the courtesy light "switch" is a triac or
a relay?
