Twilight Sentinel
My 03 vette is about a month old and I am still waiting for the owner's manual, which was ordered. My question is, can the twilight sentinel be turned off, and if so, how do you do it? Thanks

if you are in Canada no ... it's a Canadian law for them to be on all the time . maybe you can find a dealer that will turn off the z49 option with a techII . but I do not think you will get a dealer to do it >

thanks for the replys. I thought it was only the daytime running lights that are required in Canada. I tried resetting the twilight sentinel in the options menu, but nothing happens. It appears to be locked.

All you need to do is take out the #44 relay that is located in the fuse box in the passenger footwell. I have had mine out since 2002, everything works fine, you just have to put your headlights on and off manually.
Good Luck

That does sound a bit silly you can't turn sentinel off, sentinel has to do with turning on/off the headlights under certain light conditions. The feature is not related to DRLs. Is everyone talking about the same lights, etc.?

Aren't those the two big ones upper left side?
If so remove the two smaller one's next to it, might need needle nose to pull it out (what I used) and then put the smaller two back in.
