Parking Lights Not Working (Other Lights Fine)

Nixlimited · 05-13-2014, 12:05 PM

Update: stealership called me this morning. They replaced the DTRL relay and everything is back to normal. Unfortunately, they charged me an hour of labor to figure out what I already told them. In fact, when I came in the shop, I asked for the relay part only, and they told me that the part was not necessary for the car. Based on that, I left it with them to diagnose. This morning I get a call that the car is ready to go. I asked what the issue was: the relay. And now I am responsible for is the relay + the labor to diagnose the issue.

sucks... you could try arguing with them. I didn't pay for diagnosing of an issue that I told my dealer was the issue. they spent 2 hours looking for the problem but didn't charge me.

glass half full: you have your lights working now

Yeah, at the end of the day, just happy to have the issue resolved. It wasn't that expensive.
