Unique Headlight Issue
I have been having ACAs for years with no issues. However the other day I went to turn on my parking lights; first detent and the headlights pop up but not on! Turn switch all the way, and headlights come on like they are suppose to. Twilight option setting set to off also. It does it all the time now. Do not have a clue what it could be!

What is MFS? The whole switch column?

I had a similar issue after replacing the multi-function switch for another issue. Here is a post about that:

What I also found was that a body shop had (two years earlier) failed to properly tighten the bolts holding the headlight assembly in the body and bolts had worked themselves loose. Why the problem occurred with the new switch and not the old I don't know. I guess I disturbed the equilibrium.

Hey Thanks JDMvette! I went ahead changed the driver's side gear that was making noise after closing which was on my list. It solved all my problems! Don't know how it's related! So glad I did not order a MFS switch! SMH!
