This happend to me and i had to take my car to the stealership and they replaced the harness in the dash and showed me a burnt switch.. Just my luck though maybe you just have a loose connection in the dash...

yeah i might have to go to the dealership/ stealership cuz they turn on when they want but since i just bought it from a dealer and i but a warrenty on it and maybe they cover it

yeah thats what i was getting at. there is a large electrical plug in the steering column that has melted on a few people causing issues with the headlights. i was just trying to find a picture but lost interest before i found one... haha Check the plug that attaches to the multifunction headlight switch.

see my above post.

from what i understand always having the fog lights on can make this electrical plug mess up, or mess up quicker.
