One problem i'm having is during the day my service vehicle soon light stays on, not the check engine light but as soon as it gets dark and the automatic lights turn on the message goes away. It does having daytime running lights. I replaced any burnt bulbs already. Any ideas what it could be?

Hi,

I could be the indicator for an oil change. Try this and let me know what happens.

With the engine off, turn the key to the run position (do not start the engine). Within 5 seconds, full depress the gas pedal three times. Turn the key off. Start the engine and see if the light stays off.

Let me know if that takes care of the issue.
