Re: Headlights coming on	Sign In

first I would suggest you scan for codes, This will require a scanner capable of reading all codes - B, C, U, etc- series, as well as the common P series.
Any issues - security light on, ANY added elec devices ie a remote starter ?

Definitely not. That scan is not going to be a free one.

Do the running lights come on also? Does this have any aftermarket equipment installed?
