Dashboard lights in night mode all day

[tkroeker]

My 2014 Silverado does not know whether it is day or night because the dashboard lights stay in night mode.  What do I do to fix it?

Think the light sensor in the middle of the dash do wear out. Have you replaced anything yet?

You sure it's not the dimmer switch turned down?

Could be normal.

Maybe a bad headlight switch?

Good thought, but in my experience, the dimmer switch doesn't dim when in day mode.
I'm thinking the light sensor on the dash?
I believe this was mentioned on a similar post?

Is the sensor on the dash covered?

 

Did you do any work under the front panel, around the light sensor?
