Well I know the sensor for the auto lights is right under the vent in the top of the dash, next to the blinking red light. I don't know if it is somehow connected to the power source that you plugged your radar detector into....something might have shorted it out?? Or if your radar detector is mounted right above it on the windshield maybe that's interfering with it somehow. Either way the auto-lights function is something I disabled long ago.

Yeah, most people disable it. If the switch still works the lights, I don't see a problem.

Yeah I would like to know how to turn the AUTO HEADLIGHTS OFF I hate them. Someone told me that I needed to take the dash off and cut the wire. Is that true or is there a better way around it. PLEASE them me there is a way.
