anyone had issues with the DRL leds strobing at startup- esp cold?

[tc429]

when I picked mine up, they told me one headlight was strobing at startup, and quit after a minute or so- they ordered a new headlight complete... was gonna get it done today, but not a quick job, gotta take it back...anyways at the dealer tried locking/unlocking to get it to do it, and it does it on power up about half the time- I just dont think its a headlight issue, but whatever turns it on, know what I mean? a led is usually good or bad, seems like a power transistor or relay would be more likely- just wondered if anyones had similar issue fixed and if it was actually the headlight or the control module. appreciate any info- just would prefer not having to disassemble things if not needed, although, could probably get them to straighten the off center valence

Hey there! I can look into your F150's electrical concerns on my end. Will you send us a message with your VIN and dealership info?

I wouldnt worry about it- dealer already got the light, I can drop it any time and theyll take care of it- I was just hoping to confirm someone else had similar and the light was the issue, kinda a worry wart and hate having stuff tore apart if not for sure the issue...on my 19, they had to remove the interior/dash to replace heater plenum that supposedly was leaking, a week after that kinda big job, it was soaked again-they found a grommet was not snapped in by the door, think they did all that work for nothing... it happens
