    I hope someone can give me some ideas as to why my running lights turn off when my headlights come on.

    I have a 2018 Off-Road with 2nd Gen Morimoto headlights with amber DRLs, Meso V5 mirror lights, Alpha Rex tail lights and Baja sports for fogs. I have always just left the switch on auto so I didn’t have to worry about turning my lights on or off and everything has always worked fine until a couple weeks ago.

    During the day my DRLs and mirror lights work just fine. As soon as my headlights come on the DRLs and mirror lights go off and my taillights do not come on. My turn signals still work and so do my brake lights.

    I am so confused and don’t know what to check to get everything working.
