headlight sensors maybe.....
hi there, can some one tell me why sometimes i turn on side lights, the headlights spin round and are off. and other times i turn on side lights and head lights stay down unless i swith them on. this is bugging me because i drive on side lights quite often but dont want the headlights up unless im using them. so is it ment to do that? and how can i run just side lights when i want. thanks

I am taking a guess and saying you mean driving lights or parking lights. If they come on with the switch set to parking lights, your switch is going south.No offense, but it was harder understanding your question, than answering the question.

Me wonders if they use capital letters on the other side of the pond. Mabey they use a different spelling book too.
Replace the switch. It is not working perfect. You have a short somewhere. You could check between the switch plug and the relays to find it or it is the switch.
