Chevrolet Repair: chev lumina, drl module, alternator
QuestionMy cars headlights stopped comming on by themselves could it be a relay or the DRL module or corroded wires. Also the lights dim at an idle or under load if this helps. Thanks
AnswerHi Frank,
I bet you have this fixed by now. I am looking over the pool of unanswered questions, and came across this one. I will answer this for you anyway.
I believe the daytime running lamps are controlled by a direct power link from the alternator. A bad alternator will cause the lights to dim at idle. A voltage regulator to be more specific.
I feel the two problems are related to the alternator. Have your alternator checked (you can do this while on the car), and repair as needed.
Hope this helps.
