Default HeadLamps won't shut off 2006 SCREW Canadian

Hi

Lights shut off sometimes. I keep switch in Automatic.
Other times they stay on and drain battery.
I pulled harness off of the Resistor. No affect. Maybe I should try that one again.

My girl has DRL (Daytime Running Lights).

Folks experiencing the same fault have talked about:

DRL Resistor
Light Switch worn out
Light sensor in Dash
Relays
Other

I wish i could find a schematic for a "Canadian" headlamp circuit.

Any ideas?

Much Obliged.

No such thing as "Canadian" headlamp circuit, it's the same world wide.

I never said it was a Canadian headlamp Circuit!

But there is a lot of diferenceces with teh years, versions etc .

Many Amerciasn go on and on about DRL. Seems to be different variants for DRL.

So thanks I guess for your help?

My apologies.....you are correct.


I hope you can forgive.


Ford wires up F150s for DRL because America understands ands loves the concept.
