Just purchased a new 2012 camaro - the day time running lights are not working. I read the manual and have the car on and auto light set to on. I am in direct sunlight too... Human error or does anyone have troubleshooting tips?

You have to put the car in gear for the drls to come on auto!
Cheers

If they both stopped working at the same time, it could be a blown fuse. Suggest you take it to local Chevy dealer and let them figure it out.

The plug in the right wheel well may have come off also.

Hi there,

I'm sorry to hear about your DRLs not working. I understand how displeasing this would be and realize you're seeking opinions about it. However, if you'd like to consider getting an official GM diagnosis, please message me privately as I can reach out to the dealer's Customer Experience Managers (CEM) for additional assistance. If you'd like to contact us privately, we'd be happy to discuss this with you further.

Kind regards,

William R.
