Why buy new when you can restore?

Quick question for ya, how do you get the lights to only turn on only when I turn them on. I pulled the DRL fuse but they still turn on when I am in the garage because it thinks it is night out.
Is there a fuse for AHL (Automatic Head Lights)? :dunno:

Far as I know, you have to place a resistor on the photosensor (the dome shaped sensor on the dash) so that it tells the truck that it is always light out. I forget what size the resistor had to be though. I did this on my '99 GMC and it worked good.

There might be, I may have to take a gander at my owners manual again.

I've done this before too, I don't think there is any other way around the auto system.

I just looked through some threads on GMT and it looks like there's not a fuse for the AHL's, only the two for the DRL's.. Good luck! :cheers:
