Hi there, I have recently replaced my headlamps in my ford EcoSport 2016 Diesel titanium with Phillips GT race 200% brighter lamps. Since doing so, the automatic lights don't work but they work when I switch manually to headlamps switched on. Does anyone have any clue as to what may have happened. Many thanks. 

The new bulbs may be pulling too much current, and upsetting the control system. Try putting the old bulbs back, if everything works normally then that is probably your problem.

Thanks for your reply, I am such an idiot. It was daytime when I thought they didn't work but was a very dark day so thought they would come on. Turns out they work perfectly fine when the car deems it dark enough for them to be used :)

Lol, in my experience of several cars so equipped, they often don't come on when you think they should, and conversely do come on when you think they shouldn't. So you end up switching them on/off manually anyway.😀
