I'm sure this has been discussed but I can't seem to find a thread.
I have a 2017 Ram Laramie with the Uconnect 8.4 Nav. I'm trying to disable the auto high beams as I want to control when it goes on and off. I believe there is a way to disable this feature from my 8.4 screen. I've looked and I'm frustrated. Help please!!

Click to expand...

That turns it off. If you go into settings there should be an option for the lights. Under that menu there is an option to turn off the auto brights. I used my brights recently and the auto setting was on. Very annoying.

If you pull the stalk back, that to flash high beams. I'm hearing that there's a setting in the Uconnect to disable auto high beams as it's annoying. I live in the country and over every little hill the high beams turn off and back on a few hundred feet down the road.

It is supposed to me in the settings menu in the 8.4. Go to apps, then settings, it will be in there.

It's in the menu, maybe under security I don't remember. Don't forget there's a touch scroll on the far right for more choices up or down

It's in the menu, I can't for the life of me remember which section it is under in the settings but it's something like driving convenience I think. Same spot as the auto wipers (if equipped), and the headlight time outs.
