Most likely it's a relay inside the LCM that is bad. Try tapping on the LCM, if the headlights come on then the relay is bad.

I can fix it for you.

PM me.

Note: tapping on the LCM is not a permanent solution; ask me how I know... :o

However, if that does work, pull the LCM and send it to FBM for one of his super-trick, gar-un-teed HD relay retro-fits. That'll fix the issue once and for all; ask me how I know that, too.;) -----> :D

For sure!

Dealer = > $500, problem will re-occur with replacement unit.
