Don't know whether its a sport you've got or not but I'd imagine even if it isn't all the systems work the same.


Turn the ignition on.
Twist the light switch on and off twice, you should hear a beep.


That should have done it.

I think its sidelights actually.

Turn the sidelights on and off twice. If you don't hear a beep try the dipped beam.

1. Try what Polarbert suggests;
2. Disconnect the sensor;
3. Don't drive through tunnels or at night.

Why don't you like 'em coming on??
