So I've had my 9-7 for about a month now but it is my third 360 as I currently have a Rainier as well so this is a new issue I haven't seen.
I wondered why when I got the 9-7 the OEM HID's needed to be replaced given how long they should last and why the Navigation system never changes to day or night settings at the correct times. Well what I am now realizing is the healights rarely if ever turn off and the nav unit doesn't recognize whether it is day or night. (in the day the nav screen turns to a white color and at night supposed to go to a black background color.) Usually in the morning I back out of my dark garage and the car rightly turns the headlights on the instant it clicks into reverse but will only rarely actually recognize that it is bright and sunny out and finally go to drl mode. It doesn't matter if I turn the headlights off and back to auto while it is daylight, it still thinks it is night and keeps the headlights on. If it is one of the rare days where the lights did turn off on the way to work in the morning when they should have, they do then turn on at the correct time when I enter the parking garage at work. The light sensor isn't blocked as it works sometimes so I am wondering if anybody has any input on this one?
Thanks
