Annoying auto headlights system

Maybe tape a flashlight inside a TP roll or something and place the roll over the sensor with the flashlight turned on facing towards the sensor. It’s not ideal but would probably work in those two scenarios.

 

It should be easy to do. Just splice a switch/relay into the power circuit for the sensor. I just really don't feel like pulling apart the dashboard right now.

Plus I'm not sure I want to start cutting wires while it's on warranty, but I'll probably do it eventually. I paid for the feature, so I might as well at least make it available.

 

That would work too, but the feature really isn't that important to me. I've been driving for 28 years without it.

Eventually I'll put it on a switch.
