Hello all in forum...
Heres the situation:
2000 Impala
Headlight indicator is on at the dash...
headlights are off, cannot switch this indicator off.
Lights remain on forever when engine shut off.
Mechanic , no clue, dealer, try this and that.... nothing worked... any idea?? (Perhaps the light sensor switch , is defective???), BTW... where is the light sensor switch, (photo electric cell??)

Many thanks in advance....

When you say the headlight indicator on the dash do you mean the Blue high beam indicator?
I had a 2000 Impala and that is the only indicator I remember as far as lights go.
There should be a photo electric cell behind the rear view mirror for the automatic headlights / dash lights feature.

Also, this may sound silly but make sure the headlight knob is not turned to where it clicked so that the interior lights are actually on.
Is it possible a child or some one else may have turned them on and forgot

D they lights go out automaticly after 10 or 15 minutes the way they are suposed too?
