need help with head lights

ok so when you put the car in drive the drl's flash quicky about five times then trun off {oh its a 2000 ac 3speed} after that the service light will come on but not the MIL. code check shows no codes in any of system yet abs light will come on and airbag light. the check engine light is the only light not comeing on and it checked out ok. ground on battry checked and cleaned no change charge seems week 14 volts ac on 12.95 ac off week altanator maybe?

Hello,

Also own a 2000 with same problem. What this is, as near as I can diagnose is a Short in our Daytime Running Lamp module. If you start the engine, turn the regular night headlights on, then engage drive/rev. the Service lamp will not light up, and you can drive around until the next start.

I found this out when they flashed a bunch of times, I saw that my pass. side headlamp needed a new one, replaced it and after 2-3 starts this surfaced.

Remove battery, look for corrosion underneath caused by wiper fluid spills. Blue/Pink wire will be culprit. Either no connect or short. One of your High beam headlamps likely does not work - but it is not the bulb. It is the controller - DRL module.

Interested to see what you find... Good Luck as well... :)

Hello again,

P.S. 13.8VDC is normal Out for Alternator. Charges battery for next start.
I think you are OK there...
