Default Headlight Question - Please Help
Just got my 2001 vert back from dealer (cluster replaced) and now my headlights automatically come up/on at dusk/night. They did not used to do this. I actually don't want them to do this as I like my parking lights and fog lights only at dusk. Is this just a sensor they activated? How can I turn it off or overide it? Thanks for any input!

They activated your twilight sentinel. You can turn it off under your OPTIONS. I have mine turned off.

You might want to check your state laws. Many states require headlights at dusk
