Headlights... Again!

Featured Replies

This was touched on in another thread but it didn't really cover my situation, so I thought I'd start a new one...

I have a '63 plate SE. It does have auto wipers but it doesn't have auto lights. The light selection dial just has '0', sidelights and dipped beam. The sidelight position is backlit but the dipped position isn't. If i turn off the ignition with the sidelights on it beeps at me an warns me on the maxidot. It doesn't do anything if I leave the dipped beams on.

So my question is: is it easy to add auto lights? And if not, can the coding be changed to warn me when I leave the dipped beam on?

You can't leave dipped beams on, that's why there is no beep, they'll go off with the ignition.

Yes, good point. So the beep is just for the parking light I suppose. It's just annoying as I foget and then drive off the next morning with my dipped beams on, looking like a plonker!

As you remove the keys from the ignition, have a look at the light switch position.  :D

I can assure you, nobody will care that you have your lights on.

IIRC you just need to change the switch, connect a wire between a couple of bits and then code it.
