I also found out the that the Canada ECU (with true auto on/off headlights) is indeed a different part number, so probably is programmed differently too. If I had gotten this to work, I was intending to replace my headlight stalk with a Canada stalk, which has the "Auto" position. Unfortunately, I also discovered that the Canadian headlight stalk is on the RIGHT! (never knew that - I wonder why?)

So it's back to the drawing board......
On the RIGHT??? is that right? In the manual it shows on the left. I thought the manual was for US and Canada like the warning lights. Can someone in Canada tell us for sure?

I agree that TIS and the manual shows only one.

The dealer showed me the diagram when he pulled up the part number, and it was on the right. However, he was moving pretty fast on the parts screens, and it would be good for someone else to confirm. He showed two different part numbers for US and Canada, Canada on the right, US on the left. Maybe he pulled up the wrong diagram.....Time for a quick thread to confirm?

UPDATE: A Canadian owner confirmed that the headlight stalk is in fact on the LEFT, as in the US. My parts tech was apparently showing me another country's diagram....
