When do the headlights come on on a Silverado?
The headlights do come on automatically when it gets dusk/dark. The ambient light sensor seems to be funtioning as it should. During daylight conditions the DRLs shouldn’t illuminate at all when unlocking or locking in my experience.
What are the running lights on a Chevy Silverado?
The daytime running lamps (DRL) separate lamps independent of the headlamps. With the headlight switch in the OFF position, the DRL will either be turned ON or OFF, after an approximate 8 second delay depending on whether daylight or low light conditions are sensed.
How does the DRL work on a Chevy Silverado?
With the headlight switch in the OFF position, the DRL will either be turned ON or OFF, after an approximate 8 second delay depending on whether daylight or low light conditions are sensed. The DRL 10 A fuse in the engine wiring harness junction block supplies battery positive voltage to the daytime running lamp (DRL) relay switch contacts.
When does the automatic headlight change to DRL?
If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the automatic headlamp system will come on immediately. Once you leave the garage, it will take approximately one minute for the automatic headlamp system to change to DRL if it is bright enough outside. During that delay, your instrument panel cluster may not be as bright as usual.

Why are the lights on my Silverado truck not working?
Tested several times now as I’d read that was a possible cause. The signal lights also blink when I unlock/lock the truck. The DRL lamps come on with them, and stay lit for 10 or so seconds after the signal lights go out. Backup lights stay on solid like the DRL’s for the same time duration.

What to do if your headlights are always on?
Plug C3 back into the BCM. Start the truck and make sure the lights are off. Throw a dark towel or something over the light sensor on the dash and verify the lights stay off. Try your light switch that has probably never been used and that’s it! Takes about 5 minutes. Re: Headlights are always on and I cant turn them off.
