I need help! I installed HID's in my car. But My riviera almost dies when they automatically turn on. Is there a way I can disable the automatic ON headlights. Because I have always wanted them off. Please Hep

Ive tried that. I have mine all the way so it doesn't come on unless its darker. But. I parked at my house today and right before i turned off my car the auto headlights came on (since it was under a covered roof) and it drew too much power and almost killed my car as i was shutting it off didn't sound to good lol.

ok yea. I remmeber the click but it still idk its weird Ill try that though Thanks!

The twilight sentinel trick only works on early model 8th gen Rivs, 95-96 years I think. My '98 has daytime running and will not allow lights off after dark. I looks like jordynarz has a '95, so should work for him.

I remember i was messing with it a long time ago. sitting in a parking lot in Park. and i switched them to the left so they turned off. The car was running. and the lights turned off. But hen they started turning on and off rapidly it was weird.

I may be a fool but i thorght the sentinal was either on or off? the rotating part of the switch was just to set the time the lights stayed on after you turned the ignition off.

Are we overlooking the issue of why his Riv almost dies when the lights turn on automatically? This shouldn't be happening.

Would you please also take a minute or 2 to add your basic car info to your default signature in your Profile settings? It's much easier to get and offer help here if we know what car you are dealing with.

I have put my Car specs in my Signature BUT, for some reason it won't show up . Please help me lol. I went to check my signature and it shows i have what I wrote there. 1995 riviera s/c stock. But My car at idle i turn on my HID's and the gauges drop to zero and come back up for a second cause of the power it draws. They are not relayed.
