Auto Headlights Main Beam Question
Posted: Fri Oct 01, 2021 10:45 am
Hi all,
When the headlights and main beam are on the auto setting does the main beam only activate after a certain speed?
The reason for my question is this...at the moment we are stopping in a wooden lodge in the middle of a forest, on the way home for a local restaurant the auto main beam was working fine. To get to the lodge you have to drive down a half mile tarmac single track road with speed humps so you've got to take it slow but the auto main beam never comes on, just when you need it to, a twisty forest track lined with trees.
I know I can put the lights/main beam into manual mode but what's the point in having auto main beam when it doesn't come on when you actually need it.
Regards, Chris.
