inner angel eye illuminates?

jmeas · 08-11-2011, 05:39 PM

so i pulled up to park infront of a building window and saw that my left inner amber angel eye was illuminated, but the right wasn't. and usually they never are when i'm just running the daytime angel eyes. i had to switch the knob all the way to the right, then back to the far left to "reset" it a few times.

after about a minute, it came back on. after "resetting" it a few times, its gone. but it's been happening here and there. any ideas why?

Er... "Inner angel eye"? It is hard to figure out what you are talking about, but it appears that you are referring to the cornering lights (the inner "headlights"), not about angel eyes. The cornering lights illuminate when you turn the steering wheel and when you use the turn signal. Only one is usually illuminated (on that side where you turn the wheel or use the turn signal). So it is perfectly normal to see only one of them illuminated, especially if you just made a turn into a parking spot in front of a building.

P.S. What "knob" are you talking about?
