Answering my own question here, it's what I thought it was. One of my high beams was out, so my high beam indicator was flashing when my headlights were not turned on. As for the daytime running lights, they came back on when I changed the bulb.
Yes it is and will result in a 250 dollar fine.
If it's just a round flashing light that has no indication as to it's meaning, it's probably the Daytime Running Light indicator. It's only on when the headlights are OFF. If it's flashing, it generally means that one of your DRL's has burned out.
There are a few reasons why your daytime running lights are flashing. Your wiring could be messed up or your lights might be burning out.
I'm not quite sure I understand your question. If the daytime running light indicator on the dash is flashing, it generally means that a headlight lamp has burned out. Maybe you can give us a little more information about what's happening.
daytime running lights
your car sucks!
If you're talking about the green head light indicator to the upper left of your speedometer on your dash, that's the daytime running light indicator (DRL). The high beam indicator is a blue indicator and is inside the speedometer arc. A lot of people confuse these two indicators. The daytime running lights may be disabled by preferably removing the DRL fuse in the fuse box in the driver's door jamb or engaging the parking break.
This is caused by one of your headlights being out most likely the brights. turn the car on switch from brights to normal and daylight lights and you will see on is out, you just need to replace the headlights Did you find out the answer? I want to know because mine is doing the same thing. Thanks! richandjopost@hotmail.com Along with the blinking you should hear clicking, the clicking is a faulty daylight running light relay. The DRL Relay is the located in the fuse box. I installed HIDs in my 04 cavy and when the daytime runners are used they do not supply enough power to the Catalyst. so i have to turn them on manually to get them to stop blinking. (daytime dash light also blinks) its kinda cool when u accidentally pull someone over with flickering headlights lol. i just wanted to throw my personal experience curve ball.
I just had the same problem and replaced the daytime running lamp module. Ford part # xl2z-15a272-ab. This part is located behind the drivers side head light and gotten to thru the wheel well.
the answer is one obvious fault; from one of two probable problems: the buggered part is the DRL module [Daytime Running Light], but it may have just been the module's time to go, or it may be a manufactured defect in the cavalier's wiring loom, located just inder the battery tray at the left front corner, causing a short circut, thus cooking your DRL, killing your headlights, and causing the flashy 'we've got a problem' light to show on your dash
In the engine compartment on the drivers side near the front is a covered power junction box. The relay is white and usually missing on USA cars.
That means you have a small kinda short in your lights. Mine did the same thing. Its the adapter that plugs into your lights. You can buy a new one for like 9 bucks at autozone.
