Speed up Automatic Headlights - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I have a 2001 Camry (gen 4 i think?) and I was wondering if it is possible to speed up the time it takes for the automatic lights to decide to turn on or remain off.

I know it's not that big of a deal, but since it has the feature I'm annoyed at how long it takes until it realizes that its actually dark out and turns the headlights on.

Thanks

Just curious, but you cannot turn on the lights manually? I've never drivien a car with automatic headlights.

BTW, 2000-1 Camry is Gen4.5

it's just an option that you can choose so you don't have to worry about turning it on or off...........personally i'd rather manually do it. it's on the stick.

Yeah there is. Just go to your dealer, they're set it up for you. Kinda weird that we can't customise it ourselves with a customise menu.

Can't believe you have to take it to the dealer to adjust this, but at least it can be adjusted. Wonder what they're gonna charge me for it?

Yes you can just turn it on btw ---lazy

Thanks!

Why don't u just disable the DRL's and the night sentinal all together? This is what I did. It makes your headlights fully manual:
