Auto headlights and dash light problems
I have a 2016 rdx tech and the lights come on and go off during the middle of the day. It's sunny outside. Does anyone have this problem? In addition. And a seperate issue the dash completely goes out and come s on intermittently during the day. Any help appreciated. I just changed the headlight sensitivity to min and am hoping that fixes it.

Both the headlights and the dash brightness are adjustable.
Go into car settings (car must be running and stopped) and set the auto- on sensitivity. Use the day/night button on the stack to adjust dash brightness.
The light sensor for both these functions is on the dash and, therefore, sensitive to whether, or not, the car is pointed toward or away from the sun. Your description of how your car works is consistent with my experience.
When the sun is higher in the sky, these changes will not be so frequent or dramatic, I suspect.

Also, you may want to change the brightness levels with the button just to left and below the big knob. The one with the sun and crescent moon on it.
