Good to know that I'm not the only one watching videos on how to On and Off switching of lights. I somehow felt like an idiot, at first.

Thanks! I took my car in for an oil change, and I guess they didn't like my auto setting on my lights. Well, a few days later, I was driving early in the a.m. and realized my lights weren't on. I couldn't read the pictures on the dial as my reading glasses weren't with me. So I pulled up your video and changed the lights back to auto at the next light! Thanks for being my eyes on that trip. 👀 lol

My understanding of Automatic Light Setting is that the car will automatically, depending on the condition will change setting to whatever the car is doing at the time-stationed or on a road trip.

Is there a way to turn off the chime when you turn the car off and are getting out and the headlights were on automatic. It chimes to tell you the lights are on but I don't know how long they stay on, but on automatic its confusing

Hello from Illinois! I have a 2012 Ford Focus SEL. Needless to say, I financed this vehicle used a year and a half ago at almost 83,000 miles, and I have 103,458 miles on it now. Since day one I've been scratching my head on how to turn the headlights completely off while the car is running. It sucks that I have to turn the car completely off to turn off the headlights. My light switch looks exactly like yours. While the car is running, turning the knob to the "O" position just dims the lights, but it doesn't turn the headlights completely off. I hate that! I'm not sure if that is DRL feature or what. I've taken my car to a few local mechanic shops, and none of them could really give me an explanation. I know that if I take my car to a Ford dealership I'll get the answer I am wanting, but the problem is they want $130+ just for a diagnostic. I work in security, and the post they have me assigned to is a car site. Meaning I am in my vehicle the whole shift keeping an eye on the client's property. I do this year around. Unfortunately, I have to use my car for this. I work third shift. It's hard to be inconspicuous when I'm sitting in the parking lot running my heat or air conditioning or when I'm defogging my windows, and I can't turn my headlights off unless I turn the car off. It's frustrating, and this is why I'd like to know how I can turn that off if I can.

Is there any way to turn off the DRL daytime running lights while parked? I tried using hand parking break, some other cars turn off the DRL when hand break is on, but I can't get mine to turn off no matter what I do except turn the car off
@Nickthecarguy3 жыл бұрын
Mine turns off if the headlight switch is in the 0 position off switch and mine turns off when I put the car in park. I wonder if you have the Canadian drl some laws require the drl to be on no matter what. There is a way to disable it but if drl is a law where you at and you disable it you can get a ticket for that

I just recently bought a 13 ford escape, love the car it gets me 19.6mpg way better than my past 2 cars. Most people will flash their lights at me cus they think my regular dim lights are high beams. I can't tell, I never messed with them ever since I bought it. Does my car have high beams? Or 1 set of low beam lights
@Nickthecarguy6 жыл бұрын
Queen Caylie your car does have high beam and low beam your turn signal switch if you pull that towards you once it will turn on your high beam if you pull it again it will turn them off. I can make a video on how to use your high beam
