When are the license plate lights suppose to come on? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I just realized that I don't recall seeing my rear license plate lights come on? Is it suppose to come on right when you turn on the engine? Or only when you drive (in which case I cannot really check easily).

I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

The license plate lights should come on when either the headlights or parking lights are turned on. They will not come on with only the Daytime Running Lights (DRLs). You can check them by manually turning on your lights then looking at them....

Hope this helps...

Thank you thank you! I had it in auto (DRL was running) and now with headlights ON, the license plate lights are also on! Time to install LEDs =).
