day/night sensor

Hello everyone.

The lights on my car will keep cycling on and off every few minutes. This is happening at even 9:30 in the morning and depending on how the sunlight hits the day/night sensor you can predict when it will happen. My 02 silverado doesn't do this......

Should I disable the day/night sensor? or can I splice in resistor so it's not so sensitive?

Or any other thought suggestions.

I'm experiencing the same thing and in my case it's most likely a dirty sensor or loose connection. My car has been sitting alot and I just swapped motors last season so I easily could have stretched a wire. It will flicker off and on day or night for a bit but figure out to stay on or off after a minute or two.
