Could someone please help me work out how to add a timeout to the Garage Parking Assistant code by user Bcjams.
Another user added a timeout to the code but fundamentally changed it at the same time. The project doesn't react the same. I'm looking to keep the exact same functionality as the code below, but hopefully introduce a timeout that turns the leds off after 60 seconds if no further movement is picked up by the sensor (the car is parked). Sometimes we have the garage open for an hour or two, so it would be nice to not have the leds on the entire time the garage door is open.
Any help on the coding front would be most appreciated
