daytime running lights

ok there four positions for the head lights (a off parking on


i never since i owned the car took it off of the a position and the lights stayed off until it got dark,nowthey stay on in the daylight .my question is can i turn it off i dont wanna roll with the lights on during the day and i certainly dont want to have to turn on light every night

i have my center console apart could that be why or

No clue bro, Joey or Blackstig may be able to answer that

i was with black stig today..im just puzzled cause befoer in the a possition they oly turned on t night.and if yiou do that evac thing ande look at the settings they used to frapedly change

shouldnt be related to the center console being apart, all the switches and connections and are all on the drivers left side. Are your lights on full power? or do they look like they are half powered (not as bright). I know some of our cars did come with the optional DRL's, however, if i recall correctly, all the DRL's are controlled through the computer. Did you take the switch off for any reason? perhaps you hooked it up wrong, or pinched a wire in the process.

another thing to check into are your new LED grille lights. Perhaps you crossed something in that process as well.

gotcha,i didnt do my lights myself i had black stig do it .....i'll have to check to see which lights are on when i ull it out of the garage in awhile.maybe the previous owner has that turned off and somehow now its active.one thing for sure ive already made two trips to lakemoor........hopefully not a third .....maybe its a fuse too.idk

Do you have evic? Did you mess with the light settings?

Yea I'd do have evic.no I didn't mess wirlth it ...but beforethe numbers used to go up and down. Now they show 255 and stay there.weird.ma

hmmm maybe a reset could do you try messing with them again. Could be the problem. The switch works normally otherwise right?

In the a positionthe only time the lights would come on was when iI got sark.how do i ssafely reset.and will it mess with my custom tune

No unhooking the battery shouldn't mess with your tune, its programmed into the PCM and doesn't go away unless you remove it. But before you do that try messing on the EVIC for the numbers and play with the lights in your garage or driveway til you get it where you need it.
Here's what someone had for their settings on their 300c :

AutoHLSens - Number
Current value of the light sensor for the automatic headlight system (instantaneous).

Higher Number = Darker
TC - 2 Numbers
First number is a dampening (averaging) value, the higher the number, the more dampening occurs.

i.e. Higher the dampening value, the longer it will take for the lights to come on when it gets dark and longer it will take for the lights to go off when it gets bright. So if you go through a lot of short tunnels and don't want the lights to keep going on and off, increase this value.

Second number is the damped sensor value.
Thld - A number and up to 2 alphabets
Current threshold value. If damped sensor value exceeds this value, lights will come on. If damped sensor value goes below this value, lights will go off.

A = Automatic Headlights On
H = SmartBeam Automatic High Beam System On
HBduty - Numerical Percentage
Shows the current intensity level of the SmartBeam system, 0% = off, 100% = full high beams.
Available Actions:
♪ Increases dampening value (max out then loop back to lowest value)
> Increases threshold value (max out then loop back to lowest value)

Hope this helps

Mine has the a on evic. Can that be turned off.

That means that the auto headlights are on, could be stuck on and might need a sensor replacement. If you mess with the numbers you might be able to make the A go away. Try taking a pic of that EVIC page on your Charger could help.

Can't upload pics from my pho.e but my autohl sense 255 rc70 another 255 under 255 theresa a (a) the threshold is 152 and HBO duty 0 ......how do I reset my shitz

Fiddle with it or disconnect the battery, best answers I could give you. If not then you'll have to go to the dealership to fix the problem.

So disconnect the negative .right and I wont lose my tune or settings for fans

Yes and pretty sure you won't lose any tune settings if you disconnect the battery. Actually you will reset your trans adaptives as well.

well i did it and the car blew up,,,kidding well nothing changed .so in the a position all the lights are on.and now the passenger halos are flickering i wiggled the wire and they came on and off,also i have my corners removeed due to damage ,when the corner light wire is tucked in the fender the halos are of but if i put them kinda where there supposed to be they are ok ill post what the cluster looks like now.......

sos ....help

Looks like the sensor could be bad.

Where Is that located

Try increasing/decreasing values with the steering wheel buttons. Write down your current settings and then push the music button and the > button.
