Auto Light...

[tam_bui]

Hello,

My auto light option does not work properly on my 2008 BMW X5.
The light does not turn off even on the bright sunny day.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks
Henry

I assume you mean your headlights, in which case your Daytime Running Lights are turned on. IIRC that's mandatory in Canada and probably not something you can change via programming or iDrive (legally), although you can change the setting on US vehicles.

If you mean a different light, I've got nothing.

I think the OP means the regualar (not DRL) lights do not turn off when in Auto even in bright daylight.
Sounds like a sensor issue

If that's what was meant, then yeah, sensor is either blocked/covered or defective.
