The relay engages on power on (yellow light) and starts the timer of about 1/3 of a second (length of flasher light) and shuts off with power off and restarts for next flash. If the power stays on longer than the timer (DRL) the relay disengages after the timer ends and switches to white light...

Power is supplied to both timer circuit and common contact on the relay. Yellow LEDs are connected to timer on side of relay. White LED segments are connected to off side of the relay. What happens is when power is applied, the timer starts and relay connects to yellow. Timer is set to be just...

What are you using for switchback functionality? No flashers in the system. BCM controls the lights. Common ground for all the lights. Really sounds like the bulb/circuit you are using for the DRL -switchback is bad.

Sensor on the top of the dash is ambient light sensor for dash intensity. Also the is another screw/bolt holding the dashpad on under the left hand dash button stack panel.

FYI, I tell you one of them white 08 V’s has been wrecked twice and parted out. I still have the bare frame.

Take proof of ownership to dealer and they can cut you a key.

I ran one 252,000 without any oil changes or issues. Your mileage may vary, but I don’t think it’s an issue for most.

I just got a complete set for my 07v. Same Cashmere color as yours. Richmond upholstery. They didn’t list the cashmere on their website but if you email them, they will make them for you. Total was about $1737 for full set. http://www.richmondautoupholstery.com/ Sales@leatherautoseats.com...

Maybe the top center latch isn’t locking the top down or one of the two micro switches at the center latching mechanism is going bad.

I had this issue after changing the battery. Disconnected the battery cables and held both cable ends together for a few minutes. Reconnected to battery and trunk worked again. “Your mileage my very”😁

Side question on the D7, have you been able to do a top relearn with it?

The LEDs in the switches burn out. I’ve changed mine couple of times. You have to replace the entire switch modules. They use to sell for about 19$ new but can be very difficult to fine anymore. Enjoy it.
