    To the Karen’s/Kevins/Negative Nancy’s move along, this post is not for you.

    I cannot find what I want in search, too many different directions.

    My DRLs, automatic headlamps, headlamp delay when leaving vehicle have suddenly stopped working. Lamp stalk is in auto and I’ve played with that, I’ve gone into the head unit and checked my settings there and they are all good, even changed those settings and still nothing. I’ve got a little over 5,100 miles on the truck. Any suggestions on what it could be or something I can try?

    Thank you!

    Headlights/brights/fogs all work normally when turned on by adjusting switch. DRLs I can’t get to come on,( being SR5 they are the orange amber turn signal light) both turn signals function as normal too

    Light sensor has nothing covering it (hat, papers, etc.) or has been damaged?
    Do you have a DMM and know how to use it?

    It’s an automatic so never have used the parking/hand brake. they would be in even in park just running.

    nothing is covering the sensor, haven’t cleaned the dash for a couple weeks and even then I spray the microfiber towel then wipe it clean.

    no codes that I’m aware of. Triangle light is on as I’m due for my first service, already have appointment for this Saturday I made a couple weeks ago. Nothing is showing in my app
