Try setting you your emergency brake a click or two.

Hmm, I was going to chime in and suggest turning the knob to the left as stated above...worked on my 2005 silverado. Then it hit me that mine came from the Boston area. Why the heck would it be different between the US and Canada? :lol:

It might be part of the mandatory DRLs that Canada has.

Yes, it's required by law in Canada. I'm a huge fan of daytime running lights, saved my ass on the highway a few times as it makes the speed of approaching traffic a LOT easier to judge. But I think it's pretty silly that if you're parked you can't turn the damn headlights off temporarily.

 

Apparently having a certain module on your vehicle (IPC?) flashed with a US-built VIN will reenable the feature.

I disabled my auto headlights so now my truck always thinks its light out. So i have full control over my headlights.

 

 

I went under the steering wheel to the BCM and tapped a wire between the 2 wires for the dash censor...
