Automatic High Beam Sensitivity Adjustment

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Lincoln MKT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: This procedure switches between the 2 available sensitivity settings (near and far) and provides user feedback by cycling the high beams.
NOTE: The sensitivity setting can also be changed using the scan tool.
NOTE: The battery must be within normal operating range or the setting change may not take effect.

    Preconditions must be met before the automatic high beam sensitivity setting can be changed. Make sure:
    • the vehicle is in PARK (P)
    • the ignition is in RUN
    • the headlamp switch is in the HEADLAMPS ON position
    • the low beams are on (high beams are off)

  1. 2.

    Cycle the headlamp switch from the HEADLAMPS ON to the AUTOLAMPS position 3 times within 2 seconds, ending with the HEADLAMPS ON position.

  1. 3.

    Cycle the flash-to-pass feature 3 times.

  1. 4.

    The high beams cycle on then off automatically to confirm the sensitivity level has changed.
