    Hello everyone, i'm having problems in determining an electrical problem with my 98GTP. I also am asking ones fimiliar with the electrical so no wild guesses please. Well my problem is that my headlights don't work, these involve the instrument panel, climate control, radio lights. They sometimes turn back on but in need assistance from ones knowledgeable with the electrical system. Also, the parts (instrument panel. climate control, radio) are operational it's just the lights aren't working. The display in the climate control works until the headlight switch is turned on, and return if i switch it back to the off position. everything else works except for those mentioned. And another question might be if the daylight automatic off/on sensor could be the culprit. And what happens if i disconnect the sensor. I've diconnected the DRL from the module, but it has nothing to do with it because i've had that headlight problem prior to disconnecting it. The instrument lights stay off until it clicks back on, but like i said the climate control display turns off when the headlight switch is in the on position, and vice versa. If someone knows and has a definite guess, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the input.

    That's reAlly weird, I have a 97 gtp with a similiar problem, when I have my automatic headlights on (or in the off position) and I turn my climate control from 1-4 (not digital) it will turn off my head lights but leave the fog lights on. It's extrememly irritating driving and the old lady gets cold and turns my headlights off with the heat...
