United States 2009 Range Rover Sport 4.4 V8 HSE Santorini Black
No lights in "auto positon"

I was gone for a week and got in my car and put the lights in the "auto" position
but they did not come on after dark and the little green light in the instrument cluster
also did not illuminate. If i turn the switch one click back to left they come on and little green
light is illuminated. Anyone else had this problem? Thx! Mike mike murphy

Sounds like the sensor that detects low light levels, and hence automatically turns the lights on, has gone FUBAR! 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black

Thanks Endjin, is the sensor located behind the review mirror? Is it hard to replace? Mike mike murphy

It's part of the same sensor that controls the auto wipers, so is located against the windscreen behind the rear view mirror. I'm not sure about the replacement procedure but, I'm sure someone on here, such as Bobby, will be able to give you the exact information. 2013 Discovery HSE Luxury - 3.0 SDV6 - Santorini Black

The light sensor is incorporated in the rain/light sensor located on the inside of the windshield, below the rear view mirror.
