Auto Headlight Defeat
The light sensor for the feature is located near the alarm LED. Short together the two wires going to it. A Scotch Lock works well for this (3M calls it
Scotchlok). That will make the system think its always daytime and never auto activate the headlights. If you want a less permanent defeat or want some control over when to defeat it, you can wire in a switch instead of just shorting them together.

BE CAREFUL! The edges of the panel are sharp (don't ask how I found that out, he says as he types with nine fingers ). Also, the plastic can get somewhat brittle with age so it's best to pry it up in small sections - don't just pry up the center and then try to lift the whole thing.
Once you get the dash panel pried up, you'll see the sensor just like in the photo VIP1 posted above. The whole job can be done in 10 minutes after you've done it the first time and know where all the clips are. Allow about half an hour for the first time. |
