Default Automatic headlights not working

I got in my 2005 F150 K.R. last week and my auto headlights didn't come on. They work turning them on manually, but not auto. Before i get to carried away chasing this issue, I'm gonna check with the experts. Any advice? Thanks

Do the parking lights come on in the auto setting? If so, it is the BCM, or other names. It is behind the back seat. Mine fried the headlight wire., but parking still worked.
