    automatic lights

    do these marauders have rain sensors? why do the headlights come on as soon as the rain starts? lights will come on even when light switch is turned off, no parking lights just the head lights


    thanks

    If the headlight switch is on auto and You turn the wipers on, the lights come on.

    thanks for the reply, the light switch is new and I always keep it off. I seem to be having a problem with the lighting control module, once in a while my parking lights won't come on, I kick above the brake pedal and they start working lol
    I think it all may be related.

    In my 04' Town Car also the headlights come on when the rain starts - even if the light switch is turned off. They do not come on when it's dark (and light switch is off).

    Even if you have the switch set to 'off' your lights will come on if your turn your wipers on and leave them activated for 10-15 seconds. This was done on purpose as a bunch of states had recently created laws mandating the use of headlights when raining.

    It seems like kind of stupid, the use of headlights is also mandated when it's dark but the "OFF" setting does not activate them when it's dark - because it's "OFF" not "AUTO" lol.
