Let's see how to enable/disable the front lights on the Renault Espace IV: this function allows the low beam headlights to turn on and off automatically based on the external brightness, detected by a sensor located at the top of the windshield. Let's turn on the ignition: the turn signal lever is located on the left side of the steering wheel (the one for the direction indicators).

To enable the automatic lights, rotate the end ring of the lever twice from the "0" position (off) to the position for the parking lights (the first notch, symbol "V" or two lights oriented outward): to disable them, rotate the ring twice in the opposite sequence.

As confirmation, the message "auto" will appear on the dashboard display for a few moments when the function is active.

If the message does not appear, the function is deactivated.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
