So your sensor went bad ? didn't think they put day light runners on till 97 new style. I'll be watching this . I have a white truck and alway pull on light because people like to pull out in front of me. But would like them at least running lights to come on by self.

my 94 has the daytime running lights but you can see when you start up at night that they are very dim, compared to regular headlights, is this normal?
