I have a swedish E220 -95, this means that the head lamps are always on, also with the control knob in neutral position.

Now to the issue; the position lights comes on, but headlights stays off, if I use the switch and manually turn them on they works.

Any idea on what I should look for here?

so the headlamps work if you turn them on? i don't understand your problem.

Hi
so - the headlights are supposed to come on with the ignition , regardless of switch position, but instead they only come on when you turn them on with the lights-switch? But the sidelights come on?

Never seen a diagram for that set-up, maybe check the ignition switch connections?

cheers

Correct, they are supposed to come on via the live + (or similar) signal, coming from the ignition. When you engage them via the switch the instruments lights up as well, and lamp wipers will engage.

The switch will override as soon as you engage it, for example foglights works as normal.

Should be pretty easy to diagnose with a wiring diagram in hand. Do you have one or a link to a pdf of one?

wow that was quick.
well since the lights otherwise work ok i would suggest to check the ''daytime running lamp control module''
