Automatic Headlights 3rd gen trd sport

No...next thread will be...dealer told me it had auto headlights...

 

People have survived for years without automatic headlights. He will be fine.

 

Maybe on a '17. But not true on a '16. I have auto-off after a time, but no auto-on.

 

You don't have auto-on, so no sensitivity setting.

 

"Dealer told me I had auto headlights, lemon?"
Fixed it.

 

Next thread should be, How do I open the owners manual?

 

What is this so called Base Model Sport, l can find nothing on this? I do know under Options for the regular Sport is P&T and if you get that Option then it has Auto Headlights.

 

Let's end this post on a good informative note. Can someone confirm that 5 is the most sensitive and not 1 because I can't really tell the difference. I've tried both but maybe not for a long enough period of time.

 

This thread may shed some ¨light¨ on this subject.

excuse my ignorance, if the truck has auto off lights, and you left your lights on when you turned the truck off, when you turned the truck on with them on would they not come back on and...become auto on...makes no sense to me.

 

The auto lights will turn themselves on when it gets dark enough outside. Otherwise they are off. But your way should work too. LOL

 

They won't be "auto" on they would always be on when the truck is running day or night. Auto lights turn on when its getting dark out. We can leave our lights on all the time and the auto off prevents us from killing out batteries.

 

Yes and no. If you turn your truck back on during the day the light would not turn on even if you had auto on with lights on when you turn it off at night. If that makes sense.

 

I have auto lights but I can't stand people that drive without their headlights on. I leave my headlights (and fog lights cause I'm an asshole) on and they turn on and off with the truck. They stay on for give or take a minute after I turn the truck off.

 

i have an issues with mine. 2018 TRD PRO, The AUTO headlight doesnt turn OFF even in the daylight/morning. What can i do to fix the issue?

 

Adjust the light sensitivity from the radio.

 

It works fine for 3 weeks after getting it (Dec.2017) and right now it was acting up and not turning off on daylight.
"I never mess with the light settings" and i dont think its the problem.

 

Do you have anything covering the sensor on top of the dash? That would keep them on.

 

This HOE is the culprit. haha save me sometime going to the stealership. lol

 

I know this is an old thread, but I have a 2018 Tacoma and I have begun experiencing the same issue! Did you ever get this resolved? Thanks for your help.
