I bougt an 03 av in canada and the light switch stay on auto all time.I cant get it to off .Is it any way to fix that :B:
 
Hi Erik,

Welcome to CAFCNA

I am a bit unsure of what Light or switch you are reffering to.

Could you be more detailed in the problem ?
 
Sounds like your driving lights. To turn your daytime driving lights off or your headlights off with the Av running, push the dome light button about 4 times.

The new light switch in 03 av has 4 posisions
off/auto/parklamps/head lamps
canada model they remove off posision.
you can turn it to off but it not works
in the owners manual(this mode is not available for vehicles first sold in canad)
is it somthing i can do to fix it like the av first sold in usa
 
Sounds like the American 2002 Setup.

Like Dmacker said, just push the Dome overide button a couple of times. You do have the Dome Overide button right ?

If not, then the laws in your country demand a fully automatic Lighting setup.
 
Canada requires DRL's be on and not be disabled.

From the Online 2003 Owners Manual "Fully functional
daytime running lamps are required on all vehicles
first sold in Canada."

The downside is. If you're parked at night idling, your headlights will be on. I think the dome override switch will shut them off, but if not you should be able to swap the switch with one for the U.S. model.
