No Automatic Lights

Post by 2000Silverbullet »

On my 94 SSEi. It's probably something simple but I can't find it.
Can anyone help?
Where is the relay?

I am not a guru on electrics...

Seems to me that if the lights work manually, it is not a relay issue. Might be the switch, or it might be the sensor, or a connection to one of them.

I have a '93 Service Manual, will see if there is any specific advice there when I get a few minutes.
