Headlights on when wiper turns on.

[JeffInFLA]

Do you have auto headlights? Let the wipers run for a couple cycles before the headlights turn on.

I do have auto headlights... I didn’t wait (call me impatient). I’ll check it again.

my switch is always in the “A”/auto position unless i need to manually put them on in daylight.

Thanks to ALL for the replies!

It's been a feature since the JK and does a great job of improving your visability to other vehicles in wet conditions. My state has a nice nifty law that basically simply states that if the precipitation in enough to need wipers, its enough to need lights and this function turns on the tails and markers in addition to kicking up from drl to low beams.

How many times have we seen the honda with the full lit dash, drls and nothing else on at night? Don't be that chuckle head!

10 second delay. I suppose to make sure you will be keeping the wipers on.

I think its a great feature!,

I live in Florida, down pour central, people can't turn there headlight on in the rain here, there getting bad enough in the Orlando area, they don't turn there headlights on when its dark!!!

PSA- When its raining, turn your headlight on, wipers on, headlights on! and only use your emergency flashers when your pulled over on the side of the road, not driving to be seen!

Yeah, as around here sometimes you go through a quick rain that lasts literally seconds and you are out of it again.
We ran into that heading to and from Spirit Lake a few weeks ago - the wipers were one, then off, then on, then off and so were the headlights.

Or - one of the local businesses watering their lawns - and half the street out front - more than a simple swipe of the mist lever can handle.
