Dashboard lights

Hi

I have a Fiesta ecoboost 12 plate and because it has daytime running lights the dashboard is always lit. As a result I sometimes initially forget to turn my lights on when driving at night, it's a bit frustrating. Is there anything I can do about this? I suspect not!

Thanks

Caroline

    Unfortunately not, it’s a common issue now

    You could just make a point of turning your lights on everytime you get in the car regardless of how light it is, that's what I do.

     

    P.S I'm sorry I can't help it but everytime I see the title for this thread this song starts playing in my head 😀

    No unfortunately they do not go hand in hand, you can have one and not the other.
