Intellibeam Activation

Rocz3cqg · December 15, 2018

My Intellibeam circuit worked properly when I purchased the vehicle. The Circle A indication in the Upper Dash would appear once the vehicle was started and it was dark out. Once the

vehicle was in motion above 25 mph, the bright indication next to the Circle A indicator would appear if there was no on coming headlights. It would go off with any oncoming headlights,

and you could turn it on and off with the left column control. I then got the 18-NA-324 Update for my DIC blanking out and noticed sometime later that the Intellibeam control was a little flaky.

If the Intellibeam activated correctly on startup, it would operate properly for a few minutes and then the Circle A indicator would go out indicating the system is no longer active. Pressing

the on/off control on the left column did nothing. Turning the Auto Headlight control off and back on might at times engage the Intellibeam control. Restarting the vehicle did not always

solve the error condition. Is anyone else experiencing this problem after receiving the dealer update?

make sure your fog lights are off or it does not work

Yep the fog lights are off. The Intellibeam operates like it should until they turn off by themselves. Total darkness they are erratic and at dawn they operate fine.

Sounds like a sensor problem, but the dealership I hope finds something.

Yes, I have had the same problem once less than a week ago....it was working fine until recently.
