Focus MK4 rear daytime running lights not on

[mclarenf1racer]

Hi,

Been trying to look through for an answer, I got a 15 plate Focus MK4 and it has daytime running lights, Im pretty sure that when I got it the rear lights came on as well as the front, but now only the front lights are on.

When i press the fob to open the car front and back come on, when I open the door front and back are on, but when I start the engine the rear dont come on unless I put my road lights on.

has a button been accidentally pressed or is there a fix or is this normal, car is due a service soon wondering if this will be covered.

many thanks for any help

Normal!

Day time running lights just operate the front led lights only. 

And your car is a Mk3.5 not a mk4, the Focus Mk4 is due out next year.

Jezza and DRS, many thanks for your replies, and the info on focus version, appreciated.

If you have auto headlights obviously they will come on with those.

Also if you have rain sensing wipers and auto headlights, if the "rain lighting" option is enabled on your dash, the headlights will also come on automatically when the auto wipers decide to wipe constantly.
