Hey you guys. I've heard you don't have the daytime driving light in the states, but that Canada has them and probarbly some other countryes. Hoping someone has a good idea what can be wrong.
My problem:
On my way home from a little holyday this weekend I noticed my driving lights had stopped working. It is the same as the main lights, but they turn on automaticly when I start the truck. If I turn on the switch they work, so it's not the lights themselves. The first thing I did was to check all the fuses. All of them where working fine, so my next guess was that a relay had gone bad, but since it's so stupidly explained in the manual I'm not sure whitch one is for the driving lights. Tried to ask at ford, and the US-specialist there said it was a resistanse mounted on the backside of the frontbumper. Well,I bought a new resistance, and mounted it, but no difference, so I put the old one back in and went back to ford. Now the US-guy dont have any more ideas, but wanted me to come back in a couple of weeks, then maybe he would have time to look at it(and charge me "zillions" of $$ I guess).
Well anyway. I was hoping someone might know what relay controls the driving lights. I think maybe there is something wrong in the translation of the norwegian manual. On the scetch the fuses and relays are marked with numbers, and in the explanation it's marked with letters, and obviosly not in the same order..
Is there any other things that could be broken. I had not done any offroading or anything, they just stopped working someway along the highway.
Any ideas would be greately appreciated..
Thanks in advance!
