Lights Indicator in Dash?

Post by RocMan »

Just wondered, is there supposed to be a lamp in the dash that shows when the lights are on? When lights are in auto mode the only way I can tell the headlights are on is when the air con temperature display turns blue. Would be grateful if you could let me know

When the lights are on auto mode they are on all the time. Only time they arnt on is if you turn the switch to sidelight only then the headlights are not on.

Unless you have Xenons, of course.

Thanks for the replies. I guess this is a feature then? I know the front lights are on all the time as DRLs but aren't the rears off? I should probably nip out the office and check for a quick answer to that!

Or unless you have a Roc built around MY2010 which lets you turn them off using the M/F steering wheel controls :nod:
