I've never seen that on a ticket, but I would suspect that it is only a red light. The more common charge is either a failure to stop for a traffic signal or failure to obey a traffic control device.
Well, the daytime running lights are on whenever the car is running and in gear. They're off when you have the headlights on. So, your service light Doesn't come on when the headlights are on?? If you switch the headlights between on and off (with the car running and in gear) does the service light follow?
to differentiate it from a brake light or running lights. Its the only one that BLINKS at a regular rate when looking at it from the back.
The green light is only on the refrigerated units. It lets the driver know the unit is running.
If it is otherwise running, you have probably hooked the leads backwards. The panel lights on computers are light emitting diodes and they will only light up when hooked with the correct polarity.
The switch is not a switch. It is a light for the ashtray itself. It will only be on when the car has the headlights or running lights on.
If it's doing this while the vehicle is running, it would be because the daytime running light system of the Grand Am included the instrument panel lights. Prior to the daylight sensor becoming standard, on some GM products, only the headlights were part of the daytime running lights system, while on others, it included all the lights.
The only thing that will work with key OFF is the brake lights,head lights and emergency flashers. Dome light will also work.
the only way i have found is put the parking break on 1 click where the break is not doing any thing but it shuts the running lights off and if you only do it 1 click the park break light does not come on on the dash
vehicles equipped with day time running lights are designed to have the running lights on when the vehicle is running in gear.the only time you can change that is by turning on the headlights, or turning off the ignition. some running lights go out when the transmission is put into park. ( the only way to change that is by manually disabling the lights, like cutting wires, or breaking bulbs)
It's the head lights only.
If your car has daytime running lights (standard in Canada) then the only way to turn on just the parking lights is when the car is in park or neutral, the light switch is in the park light position and the parking brake is on. Then the headlights will turn off. Any other configuration means the headlights will be on. On this car, parking lights can truly only be used when parked!
AnswerI assume that you mean why won't the headlights turn off when I turn them off at night. The 98 Malibu has a light sensor that automatically turns on the head lights when it senses a low light condition. Unless there is sufficient light from some other source directed at this sensor, the head lights will not turn off when you turn them off using the switch on the dash panel. They will only go off when the head light switch is in the lights off position and the car is shut off.The only other way to turn the headlights off while the vehicle is running in low-light conditions, is to set the parking brake prior to starting the vehicle. This will prevent both Headlights and Day-Time Running lights from turning on when the vehicle is running.
