I have been noticing my headlights are staying on even though it’s daylight outside. I do have it on the auto switch so don’t know why it’s not seeing that it’s bright out. Anyone with the same issue and how did you fix?

anything blocking the light sensor that is sitting on top of the dash in the middle? Weird quirks like these might benefit from pulling the negative terminal of the battery for a few minutes and letting everything reboot.

All good now as I must have bumped the arm on the steering wheel when detailing. Thanks for the advice!

Dang! I always thought that meant she was cold.

It started happening to me since I tinted the front windshield
