Hi guys, any one no why my lights come on and go off when they feel like it.

Its been doing it for about a week now, C5 2.0 hdi 2003.

Have you got the lights set to auto so when it is a bit dark they come on automatically ?

Hi Paul, Thanks for your reply, i dont think the lights are set to auto as iam not sure how to do this anyway, ive had the car since november and they have always worked when ive switched them on and not before, but for the last couple of weeks ive noticed they seem to do there own thing, its always day light when they come on, not dusk, Its not bothering me much, but iam sure other drivers are thinking whats he up to!

If your car has the auto lights (and wipers instead of an intermittant setting) option, at the top of the windscreen in the middle is located the sensor. If this area is in need of a clean then it may be giving a false signal. To switch the auto lights on/off (page 63 in handbook), you need the ignition switch at the accessory position, light switch set at position O and then hold in the button on the end of the lighting stalk until a sound is given.

Thanks Paul for your advice, I will give the screen a clean first and see how that goes. Thanks again.
