Default Headlights do not come up?

I have noticed that sometimes both headlights to not pop up when the lights come on with the twilight control. If I reset the twilight to "off" and manually turn the lights on and off a couple of times they will both come up. I can then reset the twilight to on and everything is fine for a while. Is this a problem in the making, an adjustment is needed or just a quirk. Driving me

Some head lights are easier to get to pop up than others.

Have any of you checked your battery connections? I had a similar problem and it ended up just being a loose connection. Hope this is all.....

I had the same problem. First check your HL control fuses and ohm check the HL control moduel (I found all was good). The only thing left for me was the multi switch on the steering column..... I changed it and my lights worked as advertised.

took about 3-4 hours..not that hard really
