Bought my truck in to possibly fix my driving light problem which are also my high beams!. Found out there was a recall and it was a wire in my steering wheel. Was told was probable TIPM problem, and have no warranty. more to story! Possibly TIPM problem. Because of my driving lights not working. Now have found out why dealer will not work, because of big huge law suit pending and a big danger. More to story. Both daytime running lights/ hi beams hat to be hard wired, because both of the plug ins were shot. Too much to replace so they were pig tailed together. Problem solved â˜ºï¸ |
