Light Sensor
The light sensor for the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
and the Twilight Sentinel is located in the center of the
front defogger grille. If you cover the sensor, it will read
“dark” and the lamps will come on.
Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
If the manual parking lamp control has been left on, the
exterior lamps will turn off approximately 10 minutes
after the ignition is turned to LOCK or ACCESSORY.
This protects against draining the battery in case you
have accidentally left the headlamps or parking lamps
on. If you need to purposely leave the lamps on for more
than 10 minutes with the ignition in LOCK or
ACCESSORY, turn the exterior lamps control knob off
and then back on. To delay the lamps from turning off,
see “Twilight Sentinel” in the Index.
