Ok,
So I have the LTD with the 302 package with the auto sensing headlights and rain sensing wipers. While the rain sensing wipers work fairly well, my understanding was that when the wipers were "on" the headlights would go on as well. That hasn't been happening for me when using the rain sensing wipers (even with the sensitivity up). Today was a moderate rain with the wipers wiping fairly regularly, and the headlights were off. The sky was light enough were the headlights probably wouldn't have come on based on light only.
I'm wondering if the auto-headlamps coming on with the wipers feature only works for the non-rain sensing wipers. The manual doesn't describe how these two features work together, or whether they do at all.
Anyone else have any info on this?
Thanks
